The Mayo International Kite Festival will take place on Keel beach on Achill Island this Sunday
This Sunday, the skies around Keel beach on Achill Island will be full of colours with the return of the Mayo International Kite Festival.
Hundreds of kite fliers and spectators of all ages will experience a visual feast at the Mayo International Kite Festival this Sunday, July 30 on Keel beach, Achill Island.
The festival has been running on Achill Island since 2017 and over the years has attracted some of the world's leading kite flyers eager to make use of the wide open spaces and constant wind on Keel beach.
Dolphins, whales, crocodiles and giant teddy bears will be among the creatures that will be flying over the waves for the fun and free event which is organised by Pure Magic, Westnet, Keel Camping and Mayo County Council.
Alongside the kite flying there will be free entertainment, kite making, and various kite competitions for all ages that attend. Kite enthusiasts and amateurs alike will paint the sky of Achill Island with vibrant kites.
With spectacular sights of hundreds of colourful kites, it will be an invigorating event from start to finish. Enthusiasts will build their own kites and show off their skills beginning at 1pm until 5pm on Sunday.
Francois Colussi, event organiser, said: “This festival is a wonderful way to bring friends and family together and this year’s show will be incredible as we invited some World Class Kite fliers such as Craig Harby from Wales, the Awita Team from France and many others flying artists. We promise an explosion of colours in the sky,” he said.
