Event details

Few things feel more like the start of summer than kites dancing over the Atlantic. The Atlantic Coast Kite Festival brings colorful displays and plenty of beach energy to the Virginia Beach oceanfront.

Make it a simple, low-stress day: pack snacks, claim a spot in the sand, and let the kids run. When you need a break, stroll the Boardwalk, rent bikes, or duck into nearby cafés for a warm drink if the wind turns cool.
