Sky Fest over Fort Stevenson is an annual North Dakota kite festival for all ages.  The festival is held over Memorial Day weekend each year at a favorite destination for kite flyers -- Fort Stevenson State Park.  Fly your own kite. Build your own kite!  Bring your lawn chair and spend the day.  See kites of all shapes and sizes being flown, including stunt kites. Special activities are planned for each day.  

Throughout the festival several professional kite fliers will decorate the skies with some of the largest kites currently in production. SkyFest Over Fort Stevenson isn’t merely a kite-flying exhibition. Those who attend are welcome to help decorate the sky by flying their own kites.
