Get ready for a sky full of wonder at the Pattaya International Kite on the Beach 2025! This year, the kite festival dazzles with a Snoopy theme, taking place from February 26th to March 2nd along a scenic two-kilometer stretch of Pattaya Beach.

 

Organized by Central Pattaya with the support of the City of Pattaya, the Tourism Authority of Thailand’s Pattaya Office, and the Pattaya Business & Tourism Association, this event promises to be the longest kite parade in Thailand.

 

The festival is part of the exciting Summer Invitation campaign and will showcase an impressive range of kites, including 12-metre Snoopy, Charlie Brown, and Woodstock characters flying high over the beach.

 

More than 150 kites crafted by talented creators from Australia, Switzerland, France, Cambodia, Germany, and Thailand will light up the sky. Daily shows include a thrilling Sport Kite performance by a team from Taiwan at 4pm, alongside main kite displays from 11am to 6pm.

 

 

In addition to the breathtaking kite displays, visitors can enjoy a range of summer activities. Snap perfect shots at Instagram-worthy spots, indulge in over 50 delicious street food stalls at the Kite Food Market, or get creative at the exclusive Snoopy-themed Kite Painting Workshop. The workshop is available for Central X members who spend 3,000 baht or more.

 

Pattaya Beach has proven to be a hotspot for successful festivals, with the International Fireworks Festival 2024 lighting up the coast last November 29 and 30. Pattaya's Mayor, Poramet Ngampichet, praised its excitement and safety, maintaining the tradition of well-organized events in the city, reported The Thaiger.

 

Don't miss the chance to see a colorful explosion of creativity in the skies of Pattaya Beach this February!

Kudos to AN for publishing this in time to make plans to see it.  Usually, we hear about these things in the rear view mirror, after the fact.

 

I'll miss it, unfortunately.  I'll have come and gone before then.  But it looks like it may be fun.
