DID YOU KNOW?
Last year marked a very special milestone for the Cape Town Kite Festival - it was the first time since COVID that we were able to host a full, two-day festival!

And what better place to make our comeback than the spectacular Youngsfield Military Base in Ottery? With wide open skies, plenty of space for our incredible giant kites and an amazing atmosphere, Youngsfield proved to be the perfect new home for the festival.

And the best part? We’re back there again this year!
