Description:
The Maryland International Kite Exposition will feature three fun filled days of kite flying on the beautiful beaches of Ocean City, Maryland. Throughout the festival, there will be exhibitions and demonstrations including stunt and power kite lessons, free children’s games and activities, and much more!
The festival will showcase some of the best kite flyers from around the world. Kites of all shapes and sizes will be on display including some massive character and theme based kites.
The festival also includes the Mid-Atlantic Sport Kite Championships, a kite flying competition held under the guidelines of the AKA and Eastern League Sport Kite Association. Kite flyers compete in precision kite flying events as well as kite ballet, with the movement of the kite synchronized to a musical performance.
On behalf of The Kite Loft and The Town of Ocean City, we welcome everyone to join in the festivities. Bring your family for several days of good old fashion kite flying. Remember when we say "Go Fly a Kite", we mean it.
