KITE FESTIVAL SCHEVENINGEN 2009

Sun Jan 11, 2009 6:42 pm

MASCOTTE KITE FESTIVAL SCHEVENINGEN 2009

Date 26-27 September 2009
Location Beach of Scheveningen, Den Hague, the Netherlands.

Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 September is the kite festival Scheveningen organised for the 31th times. Scheveningen is the biggest and oldest kite festival in the Netherlands.

I have select a range of pictures of the kite festival of 2008.
The pictures can be found here; http://www.designkites.com/festivals/index_new.php
See left down.
(Thank you kite fliers, which has send their pictures to me.)

The festival got a special atmosphere by the really crowded boulevard, the old hotel near the beach (Kurhaus), the peer and many people and camera’s. It’s almost flying kites in a capital city.

So please add the weekend 26-27 September to your agenda and feel free to inform other kite fliers, put it on websites and forums.

Let me know if you are interesting visiting the kite festival Scheveningen and let me know what kind of kites you are flying. (internet page/ sending pictures)

In Holland we have the expression;
Don't sell the fur/skin before you shot the bear.
(verkoop de huid niet voor je de beer geschoten heb)

Yes we like to have some kite competition, this could be STACK, Tricksparty , both, another Eurocup, or....when we can add some extra sponsors maybe a worldcup.

I have contacted some persons and let's see what comes out.
