Description:
Saint-Honore dans l’Vent is a fun festival and a great get together for all kite flyers!
Nestled a couple of hours north of Quebec City, in the Saguenay area, Saint-Honore is a small town in the suburbs of Chicoutimi. Every year, in June, we celebrate the arrival of summer with this beautiful kite festival. Kitefliers from all over Quebec, Ontario, the maritime provinces, and northern United States drive to the event to meet up with friends they may not have seen during the winter and fly kites together! Special guests also fly in from Western Canada, the States, Europe, and other parts of the world for this three day event and a lot of fun every year! In an all French environment, communication is never an issue and everyone gets along great in all languages!!
For the festival to take place, the local airport is partly closed for the weekend but part of it stays open so small airplanes fly by as kites decorate the sky... living well together with the supervision of our control tower.
Saint-Honore dans l’Vent is not the biggest event of all but it’s a fun festival where the wonderful kitefliers and volunteers taking part make it unique and unforgettable.
Come join the fun this year, June 12 to 14 2015 !
