Huntington Beach State Park will host its fifth annual Kite Festival on Saturday, March 21, and Sunday, March 22, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. both days to welcome the spring season. This is a rain-or-shine event.

The festival will feature kite demonstrations by Klig’s Kites, kites for sale (at discounted rates), live local music, food trucks, inflatable obstacle courses, a petting zoo, face painting, and kids’ activities, including kite coloring.

Park admission is required for entry each day, which is $8 for adults, $5 for seniors, $4 for children ages 5 to 15, and free for children ages 5 and under. The event will be held at the 2,500-acre park’s South Beach access, across from the gift shop, and on the three-mile stretch of pristine beach at the park.
