This all-ages free event is open to the public and prizes are awarded for the best hand-made kite, highest-flying kite and the youngest and youngest-at-heart kite flyers. Each year, the festival is scheduled on the second Sunday in March to coincide with daylight savings. The kite festival features live music, a local dance studio performance, martial arts demonstration, hot dog on a stick eating contest sponsored by Craig’s Hot Dog on a Stick and giveaways courtesy of Miller Children’s & Women’s Hospital. Attendees are welcome to bring their own kites or may purchase one at Sunshine Kite Company located at Redondo Beach Pier.
