The program for the 2021 event will feature crowd favourites including the KiteFest Kidz Zone, Kids Karnival, Kite Flying Arena, Public Kite Flying Zone, Ocean Zone, food, market stalls and more.

Stars of the small screen, Bluey and Bingo will headline the entertainment on the Sesame Lane Main Stage, performing two shows each day of the event.

Redcliffe KiteFest is organised by Moreton Bay Region Industry and Tourism (MBRIT) and Kites Queensland in partnership with Moreton Bay Regional Council through funding from Tourism and Events Queensland.

Mayor Peter Flannery says it is a one-of-a-kind event and true spectacle to behold.

“We’re all looking for an excuse to party, so you’d better get in and get your tickets quick,” he says.

“If you’ve never been to KiteFest before, I promise there’s no better place to be in South East Queensland than the sparkling blue waters of Moreton Bay on a clear spring day with a kaleidoscope of kites in the sky.”

Family fun awaits

MBRIT Chairman Shane Newcombe says it is the ultimate family weekend, with activities, stage shows and thrills to excite all members of the family.

“The addition of the very popular Bluey to this year’s program takes the event to new heights and we can’t wait,” Mr Newcombe says.
