Remember how magical it was to fly a kite as a kid? To launch it into the air, watch it soar, and run as fast as we could while holding the string oh-so-tight? Those were the days, weren’t they? Now we can channel our inner child when we visit the Newport Kite Festival, an epic summer festival in Newport, Rhode Island that’s coming up this weekend.

Feel like a kid again at the Newport Kite Festival, slated for July 8-9, 2023 at Brenton Point State Park in Newport. Hours run from noon to 5 p.m. on both days.
