Colourful kites will fill the skies over Berrow beach this weekend when Beachside Holiday Park hosts a kite festival.
The organisers of Burnham-On-Sea’s Kite Festival have teamed up with the holiday park to hold the event on Saturday September 8th and Sunday 9th.
The event will run from 10am to 5.30pm both days and there will be flying from 7–9pm on the Saturday evening with an illuminated flight at 8pm with a DJ playing music.
Amarinth, a 50ft high kite, pictured below, will also be flying during the weekend. “There are only five of these dragons in the world and this one made its first flight in the UK in May, so be prepared to be astonished,” says organiser Gaynor Brown.
There will also be a huge bouncy city arriving in the field above the beach and stalls, displays and a ‘Learn to Fly’ area.
At Beachside Holiday Park, novice kite flyers can try out their skills in the ‘Learn to Fly’ area before making their way to the main display field.
Parking is on the beach with normal parking fees applying.
