First ever National Kite Festival 2022 @ Calicut Beach

-

I'm referring to the first-ever National Kite Competition & Celebration, which will take place from December 23–25, 2022, in Calicut at the picturesque beach there.

In collaboration with the KiteLife Foundation, the National Sports Mission will organise the event.

Best Innovative Kite, Best Message Kite, and Best Large Kite are the three categories for this competition.

In order to compete for the titles of Best Innovative Kiter, Best Message Kiter, and Best Large Kiter, kiters from various states of India have confirmed their participation and will arrive on December 22. The winners will receive medals and certificates in addition to the cash prizes of $15,000, $10,000, and $5,000

The ranking criteria are already set for the catagories.

Sketches for the kite project will be sent by kiters along with their registration. Measuring tails are never regarded as large kites, and copies of foreign kites are not permitted in the competition. No matter what category the kites fall under, stability, creativity, and originality are the main judging factors.

Kiters from Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, Kolkata, and Puducherry have already submitted their entries.

For the purpose of conducting the competition, a reception committee was formed with 18 members from various walks of life, chaired by Nedumankav Gopalakrishnan, National Chairman of National Sports Mission.






Other dignitaries came as Patrons of the event include sitting MP M K Raghavan, MLA Thottathil Raveendran & Disrict Sports Council President O Rajagopal.

Watch this space🤟.

The fact that I'm about to travel and take part in Bintulu, Sarawak's world-famous kite festival for the 7-8th time since 2012, has not surprised me in the least. Bintulu is my favorite city because of how welcoming its friends are and how its appearance has developed over time. Though the premium in participation, kite flying is adorable and overwhelming when the kites we carried soar in the skyline. "To serve as a justification, I would accept bail. My phone's capacity was severely limited, but I managed to save some of the pictures you see here. Not many could be photographed." I want to add a few images to what I mentioned will give you an overview. Aparna with Guru Fred Taylor giving Revolution Kite training.

International Kite Festival of Ahmedabad - post covid 2023 . The 32nd edition of the Ahmedabad International Kite Festival, which took place this year, was more comprehensive with new personnel handling a few sectors.  Kiters who had been chosen after a selection of nations to include as many as possible also observed new players entering the market. Those include Bahrain and the GCC. What was un-impressive was how they displayed their kites and gave viewers a sense of how to fly or construct a kite. However, it is sufficient for Gujarat Tourism to demonstrate that the majority of participating nations! I would refer to the organisers of the world's most charitable kite festival as such, and I have no doubt that other kite fliers will agree. Regardless of whether they are homemade or purchased, anyone can register to fly two kites of their choosing in the event. Even with one kite, kiters swarm in! How unexpected is that! And kiters who bring a bag full of kites—many of whom are pa
