Lets go Fly a Kite ...

Kite Festival

Kite Festival

‘Uplifting Mind and Body’ is the theme for the six­teenth Cape Town International Kite Festival, which is hap­pen­ing on 23 and 24 October 2010 in Muizenberg and is proudly hos­ted by Cape Mental Health.

This is Africa’s biggest kite fest­ival and attracts over 20,000 vis­it­ors, includ­ing some of the biggest names in kit­ing in South Africa and the world who fly in to show off their mag­ni­fi­cent kite creations ...

With kite-making, kite-flying, food stalls, kid­dies’ rides, a full pro­gramme of enter­tain­ment and an eclectic craft mar­ket, this is fam­ily enter­tain­ment at its best.

The Cape Town International Kite Festival will be open from 10:00 to 18:00 each day and takes place on the lawns sur­round­ing Zandvlei, Muizenberg. There is lots of park­ing and easy access by train (False Bay or Muizenberg sta­tions). Entry is just R15 for adults and R5 for children.

"More and more people are suf­fer­ing from stress and men­tal ill-health,” said Ingrid Daniels, Director of Cape Mental health. “By invit­ing people to fly their kites, and high­light­ing the con­nec­tion between phys­ical and men­tal well-being, we hope to uplift minds and bodies".

So start plan­ning your kite design, get build­ing and we'll see you at the Cape Town International Kite Festival in October.
