Invento-HQ

Petworth Kite Festival - Probably the most friendly family kite festival ever takes place each year in the early summer in the grounds of Petworth House , Petworth, West Sussex as part of the month long activities of the Petworth Festival.

This year is the 26th Petworth Festival Kites day but it won't be a full kite festival with invited large kites. Instead this year it is changing to a 'family day' but there will be stalls selling kites and things and people are welcome to bring and fly their kites. There will also be other activities and I am told there won't be a charge for parking, but there is now a £2.00/day charge for parking in the Petworth Park carpark off the A283 to Northchapel (introduced March 2006).


In 2003 the Sussex Police Helicopter was there too.

History

I started out with a Gopher kite resource at Surrey Uni in March 1993 filled mainly with re-posts of articles from the rec.kites newsgroups and other bits. Then by the time I moved to the web around Feb 95 there was so much good information available on kites that I decided to concentrate on just UK Information on Kite Shops, Kite Festivals, and Kite Groups with a few favourite links to other sites.

This site is just a part time hobby of mine. I would welcome any comments you have, especially corrections and updates to these lists.
