The Festival concludes Sunday, Sept 29, 10 am-5 pm, with Rose Kites over Broken Arrow at Nienhuis Park, 3201 N 9th Street. Free kites to decorate with roses or whatever you like. Tulsa Wind Riders Kite Club will fly their large kites, have a candy drop, and demonstrate kite fighting! They have kites from the early 1900s, amazing kites used in WWII, and beautiful kites from Japan and China just to name a few. Pack a picnic or enjoy the convenience of the food trucks while watching big, bigger & huge kites soar over the Broken Arrow sky.
