OPA is delighted to continue sponsorship of the 25th Annual Festival of Kites, this favorite Ogunquit event. Professional kite flying demonstrations, with huge, multi-dimensional kites, are an all-day feature of the festival.
Children are also offered an opportunity to decorate their own kites, and to enter them into a contest with a multitude of categories in order for many prizes to be awarded. Kites can also be purchased at the beach so that everyone can participate. The “Grand Ascension” where the sky is filled with all of the day’s kites occurs at approximately 12 noon. Bring your cameras! It’s a spectacular sight.
The music of Joyce Andersen and Harvey Reid will accompany the festivities with sets occurring at 11 am and 1 pm.
The Capriccio Festival of Kites is presented by Cricket’s Corner Beach and Toy, Ogunquit Performing Arts, Ogunquit Rotary Club, Kennebunk Savings Bank, That Place in Ogunquit, and the Town of Ogunquit.
