Festival of the Wind  Sunday the 11th April 2010.

Get ready for Festival of the Wind  2010

This year we will have lots of wind.  I can feel it in my bones.   We are planning the biggest display yet of kites at this year’s  Festival of the Wind   The Rokkaku fighting kite competitors will again  fight it out with each flyer attempting to bring down their opponent’s kites.   Throughout the day, starting from 11AM  there will be beach games and fun for everyone.

We expect  thousands to come along and a great free day out with lots of games and entertainment on Emu Park’s  great Fisherman’s Beach with many families planning to stay the whole day and enjoying the Markets, kites, the entertainment, the games and the magnificent Fireworks at dusk.
