Kite Day

A dad carries his son on his shoulders, both looking up in a lively park filled with families and children flying kites.

Grab your family, your friends, and your kite and join us for CARD’s annual Kite Day! This beloved Chico tradition is a sight to see, with hundreds of colorful and creative kites soaring above Community Park. Bring your own kite or decorate and fly one of our free kites (while supplies last).

This free, family-friendly celebration features activities for all ages throughout the park, food trucks, and plenty of open space to let your kites fly high. Don’t forget to pick up your 2026 commemorative Kite Day button!
