First prize in the event will see the winner taking home $50,000, second prize $30,000 and third prize $20,000.
He explained: “Kiteing is a very fun thing to do as it allows individuals to showcase their creativity by coming up with some of the most amazing designs. It is a family event where all members of a family can participate. It’s all about community, family, and fun. From great-grandparents to toddlers, this festival is designed to bring everyone together. Think of it as a joyful reunion of the entire island — full of laughter, music, and memories waiting to be made. Kids will be in paradise with unlimited access to fun rides, bouncy castles, and a perimeter train – all included in their entry ticket!”
There will be rides for the children free all day as all ages can enjoy the Sunday afternoon with the various activities.
