Kite Festival at Dieppe <\/a><\/strong>(76 Seine-Maritime, Normandie<\/em>) – the channel port hosts an international kite flying festival September 2025<\/span><\/strong> (every 2 years)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Festival International de Cerf-volant <\/em>is held on the beaches at Dieppe<\/strong> (76 Seine-Maritime, Normandie).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main characteristics of the Kite Festival is its international character with the attendance of up to forty invited countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every 2 years, there are eight hectares of lawn between the city and the sea which is available to the kite flyers and the public. This exceptional area forms a kind of natural amphitheatre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See the best teams and acrobatic kite pilots, the best creative artists, but also a wide range of traditional kites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This free festival allows you to learn how to build kites with workshops, and flying kites at sessions supervised by professionals. Specific activities are organized for the children…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For 2012 the general theme was “The five elements: Treasures of Humanity”, whilst the theme of the Artistic Kite Contest was”The 5 Elements: Air, Space, Earth, Water and Fire.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cerf Volants<\/em> is also the term for Stag Beetles in french, literally meaning \u201cflying stags\u201d .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dieppe<\/strong> is an impressive Channel port with an inner harbour for small and sailing boats, whilst the Cross-Channel ferries from Newhaven dock just a short distance along the coast. There is a fish market and a good selection of interesting shops in the old town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
