Dunstable International Kite Festival

Sunday 25th July 2004

Location: Dunstable Downs, nr Dunstable, Bedfordshire
Organised by: Dunstable Kites

Updated: Now includes photos from the impromptu 10 person Rev team, courtesy of Team Spectrum.

The morning started out sunny with a moderate wind which built up throughout the day making kite flying difficult at times.

Despite the conditions there was always something happening in the main arena, and even a small rain shower in the afternoon didn't dampen peoples spirits.

Pedro & Esteban Gonzalez from Spain attended the festival giving it an International theme. Also in attendence were the Flying Squad, Team Adrenalize, Team Spectrum, Great Ouse Kite Flyers, Bryan Cantle (A.K.A. Dark Star) and many others.

During the afternoon we took part in the impromptu 10 person Rev team outside the main arena.

Here are a selection of photographs from the event, as always click on each image for a larger version.
