Antigua Set to Host Milestone Kite Festival This Easter
Devil’s Bridge prepares for aerial magic this Easter Monday as the once-humble International Kite Festival celebrates two decades of growth.
What began as a modest local gathering has evolved into a globally recognized event drawing participants worldwide.
This year’s celebration welcomes 12 professional kite flyers from the United States who have arranged their travel to Antigua specifically for the occasion.
A special nighttime display featuring LED kites will cap off the day’s festivities at sundown—the first of its kind in the festival’s history. The event runs from 9 a.m. until 7 p.m. on April 21.
Adults can enjoy the spectacle for $20, with free entry for children under 12 years of age.
Those interested in sponsorship opportunities or seeking additional information are encouraged to call 774-4879.
