Welcome to Suffolk Kite Flyers
Live in East Anglia? Interested in kites? Then this is the club for you!
The Suffolk Kite Flyers was established in 1993 by a small band of kite enthusiasts and currently have over 80 members interested in all aspects of kiting.
We hold regular flying meetings, have workshops, talks and participate in displays at local fetes etc, publish a quarterly newsletter and stage what has become a fantastic International Kite Festival in May at Rougham Airfield near Bury St Edmunds.
