Description:
The Jamaica International Kite Festival (possibly Jamaica’s largest family fun day) evolved out of the St. Ann Kite Festival held annually at the Seville Heritage Park adjacent to the historic Seville Great House on the outskirts of St. Ann’s Bay, St. Ann.
The yearly one-day event attracts average community support in excess of 9, 000 persons, that however swelled to 20,000 for the 2010 staging at our new venue.
The festival is emboldened with a kaleidoscope of colours, exciting kite flying, food, unbridled fun and clean family entertainment.
