25.01.2022 Now is normally the time when we ask everyone that visited our Festival to provide us with feedback about what they loved and how we can improve in future... Whilst we obviously cant do that based on this years cancelled Festival, we still want to hear from you! What do you love about our Festival? ... What can we do to improve? What would you like to see us include that we dont already have? Please feel free to give us your feedback and ideas in the comments or send us a message. We will take everything into consideration when planning our 2021 Festival Thank you!

25.01.2022 This week is National Volunteer Week and our Festival would not be possible each year without the support of the committee who all volunteer their time! All members of the Adelaide Kite Flyers Association, this was our wonderful 2019 committee who were all part of the planning stages for our 2020 Festival Thank you to all volunteers - we would be lost without you! ...

25.01.2022 Have you seen the latest RAA commercial currently on screens in SA? We have to say, we are particularly fond of it for some reason...



25.01.2022 Easter Bunny visited some of our Kite flyers in Victoria too - check out these stunning kites

24.01.2022 Today it is Mums Day @jasmineforecast

22.01.2022 Sending love to the team at Redcliffe KiteFest on what would have been their 2020 Festival... 2020 has been a hard year for events so here is to both of our events being amazing in 2021

22.01.2022 Friday night flashbacks...we miss this view

22.01.2022 Well the Easter Bunny couldnt come and visit us at Semaphore today but he dropped past our AIKF HQ to say Happy Easter

19.01.2022 If youve ever seen the huge 30m whale kite on display at our Festival, now is your chance to see it up close (and pretty personal!) with Simon from Peter Lynn Kites

18.01.2022 AIKF 2020 Colouring-In Competition - Announcement! With our 2020 Festival cancelled this year, we wanted to continue our Colouring-In Competition, so because of this we went virtual. All 181 submissions were sent to New Zealand where our international kite flyers, Simon and Lyndall thoroughly reviewed all of them...See below for an update from Lyndall... ******************... Thank you for asking Simon and I to judge the Colouring-In contest this year. It definitely was a very very tough one but it gave us something different to do whilst we are in lockdown in New Zealand. Judging only took us over an hour so you can see there was some awesome entries....Well done to all entries you were all amazing and made this job very hard! For the 0 - 5 years, firstly can we say WOW so much talent for the young ones. Made our judging very hard. Our winner is AYLA - 5 years old from Kidman Park Primary School. Ayla had great use of colour, very talented indeed. For the 6 - 9 years, again some great talent and this age group was the hardest our of all 3 age groups. Our winner is ABEEHA - 9 years old from Parafield Gardens R-7 School. Abeeha - WOW you really made this Colouring-In picture your own. What a unique style. We really loved how you incorporated kite pictures into the word Kite. For the 10 plus, this was a tie for us. Simon picked one and I picked one but we had to decide. Both artists really used colours that matched and made the picture really POP. In the end there could only be the one winner which was LILLY - 10 years old from Alberton. Thank you once again for letting us be judges. Only wish we could be there in person but a pandemic had other plans. Please all stay safe and hope we get to see you all next year. ****************** We will be in touch with the winners this week to coordinate getting your prizes to you from the Semaphore Carousel and Free as a bird kites. Thank you to everyone who entered, each person does receive a voucher from the Semaphore Carousel to use when they open again soon, so we will send them out to you all soon
