Pakistan Information and Cultural Organization (PICO) will be holding our annual kite festival on Saturday, Mar.9 from 11 a.m. till 5 p.m. in Fountain Hills at Fountain Park. Kite Flying is celebrated in many Asian countries to celebrate arrival of springtime. Kites are sold at the festival for a nominal cost of $5.00 to $7.00. People are welcome to bring their own kites. Many of the kites flown in previous years were large custom made kites. Fountain Park provides the right wind conditions for an amazing kite flying experience. In addition, there will be live music, various ethnic foods, henna tattoos and the star of the festival “hundreds of flying kites”. There will also be live demonstration of kite fights as shown in the movie kite runner.
Last year’s kite festival close to 1200 people attended the festival in Fountain Park.
