IX edition of the International Kite-flying Competition Ciudad de Valencia

Between the 21st and the 23rd of April the Arenas beach holds the ninth edition of the International Kite-flying Competition Ciudad de Valencia". Wind permitting, the kites will brighten the dark Valencian night with their multicoloured and fluorescent lights, and during the day , with the sea as a backdrop, more than four thousand kites will dance in unison in a colourful three-ring circus. For three days, lightweight flat framework kites, such as those made by the New Zealander Peter Lynn, who is a master kite builder and has constructed the biggest kites in the world, will be the crowning glory of the skies over Valencia by day and night.
