Leominster & Hereford Kite Festival

Description

The Leominster/Hereford Kite Festival returns for its eleventh year. It’s a laid-back friendly festival showcasing some of the best sport and single line kites. It’s for kite enthusiasts and for the public to come along and watch – and to bring along a kite and join in.

The festival is at its new location, down by the lake at Berrington Hall, a National Trust property near Leominster, a few miles north of Hereford city.

We’ll be running this as a very informal fly-in – so come along and do your thing!  We are pleased to welcome STACK who will be staging a full competition round, where you will be able to watch some of the best sport kite flyers. STACK will have a separate arena at the far end of the flying field.

There’s plenty of space for flying outside the arena too. All events are subject to wind, so the programme will be flexible.

The fly-in starts at 12.00 and runs until 5.00pm (ish). If you are a newcomer to kites, you’ll be able to get lessons from members of the local Airheads display team and others.

Camping will be available at the site, only for Kite Club members. Please note that this is a National Trust site, so camping must be booked in advance with the event organisers
