Fly a Kite for Your South Padre Island Getaway
Before we talk about the festival and the warm and inviting vibe of our Indoor Kite Fest rentals, let’s take a few minutes to discuss the act of kite flying. Many know that flying a kite in a storm was key to Benjamin Franklin’s insight into electricity, and many more have probably flown kites as children with our parents, and then again as adults with our own children. But not many know that it is an ancient practice which started over 2000 years ago in China. It was initially meant for military purposes, for signaling, for measuring distances, and for lifting people. Today, sea breezes make the beaches of South Padre Island the perfect place to fly kites, and if you want to try your hand at the art yourself, B&S Kites offers a wonderful selection of kites.
About the Festival
Held in February every year, the South Padre Island Indoor Kite Fest lasts two days and takes place at the SPI Convention Center. This SPI kite fest offers a unique experience. After all, how often have you seen people flying kites indoors? It is one of South Padre Island’s top events, offering fun, fancy, and two very awesome musical performances. There will be a different show each night of the event, and in between the music, there will be kite flyer performances, introducing guests to the magic and wonder of this ancient sport. The event is sponsored by B&S Kites, and if you haven’t yet had a chance to purchase your own kite, you will certainly get an idea of what to expect when you finally wander into the store.
