Let’s Go Fly A Kite at The Antigua and Barbuda International Kite Festival

Kites of all shapes and sizes will be visible in the sky over Antigua on Monday 10 April 2023, when the twin-island republic’s International Kite Festival takes place at Indian Town National Park.
A popular Easter tradition for kite enthusiasts of all ages, the annual festival at Devil’s Bridge usually attracts hundreds of people ready to set their homemade kites free during the height of the windy season.
In previous years, kite makers from Canada, Haiti, Bulgaria, and the USA have travelled to Antigua to take part.
Prizes are awarded for the biggest corporate kite, smallest kite, biggest kite, and the People’s Choice Most Kites in the Air.
The entry fee is $5 (EC), but the event is free for children 10 years old and younger. There will be vendors selling food and drink, along with live entertainment, and other family-based activities.
Even if you are just a spectator, this event is a fun opportunity to see colourful and unusual kites from all over the world.
