Redcar Kite Festival returns to the skies above Majuba Beach, and there is so much going on!<\/p>\n

The tide times this year mean the kites will be in the sky from 12 noon to 6pm and, with even more beach arenas, the festival will be bigger than ever with even more kites in the sky flown by pilots from Northern Kite Group.<\/p>\n

Look out for:<\/p>\n

Giant inflatable kites including some larger-than-life cartoon characters<\/p>\n

Kite ballet to music<\/p>\n

Stunt kites<\/p>\n

Rainbow Deltas \u2013 chance for children to fly their own kites.<\/p>\n

There will be two days of free workshops in the Marquees-by-the-Sea including kite making workshops; fossils; rock pool schools; printmaking and more.<\/p>\n

The Stories by the Shore tent will celebrate the National Literary Trust\u2019s Year of Reading with some exciting storytelling sessions with Lady Lemon Top, Captain Plim and his fishy first mate Sole and many others.\u00a0 And there will be some amazing walkabout performers and musicians including local favourites Whippet Up.<\/p>\n

The main BBC Tees music stage features a fantastic line up of local and regional talent and acoustic performers will also be performing on the bandstand.<\/p>\n

There are dozens of street food and drink stalls serving up everything from parmos to cheese toasties, gourmet burgers to hog roast; wood-fired pizza to Vietnamese; fried chicken to Indian Street Food; Korean corndogs to crepes; craft beers to cocktails and loaded fries to gyozas and bao buns.\u00a0 Many of these will also be at Majuba Street Market<\/a> on the eve of Kite Festival.<\/p>\n

On site face paint, henna and glitter bars will offer glitzy festival makeovers and vintage fairground rides bring fun for all the family.<\/p>\n

New for 2026, they\u2019re bringing you dedicated Facebook<\/a> and Instagram<\/a> pages. Follow along for the very latest news, updates and highlights.<\/p>\n
