Some of the world’s largest inflatable kites will take to the skies above the dramatic cliffs of the East Yorkshire coast for the annual Bridlington Kite Festival.
The event get's underway from 10am, at Sewerby Cliff Top.
Kites of all descriptions, sizes and colours will take to the air for two days of aerial displays over Sewerby Fields.
From flying frogs to sky-high snakes and leaping lizards to daredevil dragons, scores of exotic inflatables will add a splash of colour to the clifftops above the popular seaside resort of Bridlington.
Every year a number of internationally renowned experts return to provide spectacular displays for thousands of spectators over the weekend.
There will be professional demonstrations and visitors can have a go with kites available for loan during supervised sessions.
Alongside the kites there will be food and drink stalls, fairground rides and children's entertainment, making it an action-packed, fun-filled festival for all the family.

We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.

A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
