The charming and idyllic Kite Festival of music and ideas, which ran for the second time this weekend, is well worth a visit. But for an ‘ideas’ festival, the line-up was overwhelmingly white “I never thought I’d be sharing a line-up with Michael Gove,” admitted the musician Lynks on Saturday night, playing a high-tempo set before Hot Chip. The music was following a day of talks with appearances from Gove, Sir John Major and Dame Joan Collins. In its second year, there is the opportunity to watch podcasts being recorded live, newspaper editors discussing how they would put together the next day’s stories and to listen to career-spanning talks. Kite is one of a new set of festivals to open over the past couple of years, despite the difficulties live events have faced. It joins We Out Here, new in 2021, and London-based newcomer Wide Awake. The Kite Festival site Set in the pristine Oxfordshire countryside, Kite feels intimate, and is easy to walk around, although around 15,000 people arrived on both days, with day passes and weekend camping tickets available. Here are a few of our favourite moments from the weekend. Dame Joan Collins’ first festival appearance Aged 90 (but not wanting to talk about it) Dame Joan looked dressed for the red carpet when she sat down on the boiling hot Kite Festival stage. It was a high camp experience, from Collins’ mini fan held to her face to manage the heat through to her droves of Hollywood anecdotes. Best was that she kept confusing her m...

There’s something uniquely compelling about Summer Kite Festival, which is a beloved tradition that captivates and amazes families year after year. Every summer, when the weather is just right, the skies over the D River State Recreation Site become a riot of color and movement. The annual Summer Kite Festival, held on June 24-25, 2023, promises a breathtaking spectacle for all who attend. Giant, whimsical octopuses float across the blue sky, playful whales breach the cloud ceiling, and agile Rokkaku kites dance around, their looping trajectories bringing awe to the onlookers. Join for Free! D River State Recreation Site Centrally positioned in Lincoln City, this well-liked access point to the beach also doubles as the location for both Summer and Fall Kite Festivals. With breathtaking views of the ocean, there’s ample space for your kites to soar freely. Create a vivid spectacle for the travelers on Highway 101 with a striking kite show. However, keep in mind that parking space is restricted and tends to fill up rapidly. Folks wanting to take advantage of this location should plan to get there early. Over the course of two days, visitors can experience a host of kite-flying activities, encapsulating the festival’s essence – a shared sense of joy, freedom, and creativity that has made the event a must-visit tradition for families vacationing in the area. Practical matters have also been thoughtfully arranged. There’s ample parking available at the The festival’s packed sch...
