WELCOME
TO KITECALENDAR.CO.UK
We hope you
find an event that starts, or continues, your journey into the wonderful world of
kites.
You will be amazed at what modern kiteflying is all about
- it is far from what most imagine it to be. Do go
to a kite event, join in, have some fun and meet other enthusiasts who will
be only too happy to help.
Some of the
events listed here are small local gatherings and kite club meets, others
are large International festivals. Some are 'turn up and
fly your kite' type of event with no trade stands or demonstrations,
others may charge an admission fee to dazzle you with a programme
of events. Most are held
all day, usually commencing around 10.00am - weather permitting of
course!
So, may there be wind on your back
a smile on your face
and a kite in the sky.
Julie and Jim White |

CANNOT
SEE THE INFO BOXES?
If you cannot
see the info boxes alongside each calendar listing that link to the
map, Facebook, website and email contacts, this might be due to your virus software
(such as Zone Alarm) treating them as banner ads and therefore blocking
them. You can specify kitecalendar.co.uk as a trusted site. |
