International Kite Festival

Return to previous Page ›

Ahmedabad celebrates the end of winter and the coming of summer with the fabulous International Kite Festival, or Uttarayan, that attracts expert kite-makers and flyers from around India. The festival extends to many other towns and villages in Gujarat.

Kite flyers thread glass shards to the strings of their kites so they can do aerial battle with their neighbours and cut their kite strings. The losing kite spins to the ground where enthusiastic children collect the spoils.

The sheer number of kites, the ability of the flyers to control them with only one string, and the height and distance to which the kites ascend, makes for a fantastic spectacle.
