Kite Event Calendar

[St. Helens] Weekend retreat for kite flyers, The public are welcome to join in , but it is a weekend for kiters. It is held in one of the most pristine beaches on the planet, plenty of room, aqua seas and white, white sand. One of the most relaxing kite flys possible.

[Sugarland] The festival will include a mini-museum of kites from around the world along with entertainment on the main stage. Several new show kite designs will be shown for the first time in this part of the country. Parachute races and kiteflying demos will be scheduled during the day. Food and kite vendors will also be at the location. The event is FREE and open to the public.

[Denver] This is our monthly club fly. We meet at Stapleton Central Park EVERY 2nd. Sunday monthly, regardless of weather. (At least, I will show up anyway.)
This was the original International Airport for Denver until 1995, when it was replaced by our current D.I.A. Stapleton Development constructed this park as part of their redevelopment of the airport property. They welcome kiting as part of their promo to sell real estate. They turned ownership of Central Park over to the City Of Denver last year. OSOW was invited there for the 2008 Festival. The wind consistency at Stapleton is better than most of what we found in Colorado. Stapleton is far enough east on the plains for wind consistency.

[Richmond] RAF Club fly on the Sunday closest to Vanentines Day at the Football fields at Dorey Park. Single Line, Sport and Fighters welcome and appropriate - NO MANJHA string!

[Saint-Placide] Conçu au départ pour susciter l’intérêt des touristes et faire connaître notre coin de «pays», le Festi-Vent sur glace est vite devenu l’événement hivernal à ne pas manquer, tant pour les amateurs de cerfs-volants que pour les profanes. Constitué en organisme sans but lucratif en 2004, le Festi-Vent sur glace a atteint une notoriété qui a largement dépassé les frontières de la M.R.C. de Deux-Montagnes et il est reconnu pour être le plus grand festival hivernal de cerfs-volants au Canada. Mentionnons qu’en 2006, le Festi-Vent sur glace s’est vu décerner le lauréat régional des Grands Prix du tourisme dans la catégorie budget d'exploitation de moins de 1 M $

[Balikpapan] The inaugural international kite festival to be held in Balikpapan, Indonesia, hoping to have guests from over 30 countries.
An attempt to fly 5000 kites at the same time will be made by local children.

[Isla Blanca] The Isla Blanca Kite Festival was started this year as a way to get people to come down and enjoy the beautiful scenery and fly kites on the beach. We also bring kids from a local orphanage to the event and give them a kite to fly, lunch, and a toy to take home. Isla Blanca is mostly undeveloped. Senor Ramon Navarro, owner of the Acapulco Restaurant, is nice enough to let us use the grounds of his restaurant as a staging area for the festival. If you come, you will do kite making with kids who have never owned a kite, Bol races with kids who have never seen one. Kite boarders from the Ikarus Kiteboarding School will be on hand and do demo's. Isla Blanca is "Country" as we know country. Our host hotel is in downtown Cancun. It is close to a lot of local action. Contact Charles for all needed details
