Brooklyn Bridge Kite Festival @ 11:00am
About this event
The Brooklyn Bridge Park Kite Festivalis a celebration of colors, culture, spring and unity. Expanding the Conservancy’s beloved Kite Festival, this year we’re adding music to our Colors throughout the Park! We invite you to join us for this day-long festival, to herald the arrival of Spring with live musical performances, food vendors, kids activities, and activities from our partners!
Watch your kite soar above the Manhattan skyline the one day of the year kite-flying is open to the public at Brooklyn Bridge Park at Pier 5. Join for kite-making workshops and be awed at the talent of expert flying instructors – and learn some tips! This family-friendly festival unites S.T.E.A.M concepts, the Caribbean’s rich history of kite-flying, and outdoor adventures.
Live entertainment will be provided by the Eruption Steel Orchestra. Additionally Maestro, Trumpeter, conductor, composer and arranger Igmar Thomas will curate live musical performances at locations across the park. Check back for schedule and full details.
We highly encourage families to celebrate their own kite-flying traditions as well as their heritage by bringing their own kites. Kites will also be for sale, alongside workshops to make kites in the Caribbean tradition.
Bring your family, kids and friends to enjoy the free all-day festival.
PSP will be in attendance with crafts and giant bubbles! 🎉
