A cherished Bermudian Good Friday tradition — the sky above Horseshoe Bay fills with colourful handmade kites crafted from tissue paper, wood, and string. This national cultural competition honours generations of Bermudian kite-making while encouraging contemporary design and innovation.
What to expect:
- Competitive kite flying with prizes for most innovative, best-looking, and more
- Traditional Bermudian games — chess, marbles, dominoes
- Fishcake competition and hot-cross buns
- Family-friendly atmosphere on one of the world's most beautiful beaches
Whether you're flying your own creation or just watching, it's a quintessential Bermuda experience.
