Kite Festivals are enjoyed by millions of people every year all around the world. We even have a few of our own right here in Canada. What an incredible experience hanging out with all types of people, young and old, sharing a common passion. We may not be able to speak the same language at times but when it comes to kites and kite flying there are no barriers.

Check out the American Kitefliers Association for the latest updates of festivals around the world.

The Kite Guys will be on site displaying some of the big boys like Lou and Spike, we will also have our moblie retail outlet on site as well. You know we always have a large selection of kites with us and it's never a problem to get you in the air.

We can accept visa / master card and debit card for all your kite purchases out in the field.

We had a fantastic time. The winds were very light so we couldn't get any big kites up but we did manage to get lots of the smaller kites in the air. The kids had a wonderful time and so did the parents.
