Sri Lanka National Festival of Kites

 

The National Festival of Kites is held annually to encourage the creativity of Sri Lankan children and adults. Every September, large crowds gather to admire a sky filled with kites made from colourful sarees and dried leaves.

In 2006, Mount Lavinia Beach provided an idyllic setting for Sri Lanka's National Festival of Kites. Around 180 participants took part, with competitions for both children and adults. First prize for the creative category was awarded to B G Ratnasri who used palm leaves and bird feathers to make an owl kite.
