The story

Pattaya International Kite on the Beach in Pattaya

Pattaya's kite festival brings large-format sport and display kites to the city's beachfront, typically around Jomtien or Dongtan Beach, organized with support from Thailand's tourism and sport-kite community. It is promoted as a family-friendly seaside event distinct from Pattaya's nightlife-focused reputation.

Thailand has a long-standing recreational and competitive kite-flying culture, with regional and national kite associations organizing stunt and display events across the country for decades.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The event uses Pattaya's open beachfront and reliable coastal winds as a natural venue for large-format and stunt kite displays, a type of programming that stands apart from the city's better-known nightlife and adult-entertainment image, aimed instead at families and daytime visitors

02

The mystery stays covered

Kite festivals of this kind, organized in coordination with Thailand's sport-kite community, typically feature giant novelty kites alongside competitive stunt-kite flying, giving the beach a different visual character during the event than on an ordinary day
