Filey Kites Take To The Skies On Special Weekend

Filey Kite Festival is back and free to attend, taking place at the Filey Brigg Country Park, this weekend.

For 2024, organisers are partnering up with Filey Food & Drink Festival, so you might see some familiar faces.

The event is expected to attract dozens of the UK’s best Kite flyers, displaying a wide variety of weird and wonderful kites over the Yorkshire Coast skies. The weekends’ events will be hosted and commentated on by the Northern Kite Group.

Jim Potts is one of the organisers:

There will also be children’s fairground rides, refreshments will be available from the some traders and the Country Park Café. So grab your picnic blanket and head over to Filey Brigg Country Park for 2 days of spectacular kite displays.

Jim says there's an international record-breaker on hand too:

This event is subject to having suitable wind and weather conditions and may be subject to change.

Brought to you in association with the Northern Kite Group

Parking is available at Filey Country Park, charges will apply.
