Brick Township’s oceanfront will play host to some very big guests Saturday – and the community is welcome to join the fun either as a spectator or a participant.

The township’s annual Kite Fest event will grow much larger this year, being presented by Sky Festival Productions. The company, which hosts kite-flying events in an array of different locations, will host this year’s festival at Brick Beach III, off Route 35 in South Mantoloking.

Planned festivities include a dazzling display of giant inflatable kites visible for miles, an array of vertical wind feathers and ground displays, kids and adults ‘Running of the Bols’ competition, super-sized giant bubbles, kite sales and a separate public flying field for all.
