The Wyndham sky will be decorated with bright, colourful kites on Sunday January 15.
The Kite Flying Festival will celebrate the Festival of Uttarayan in India, an event that marks the changing of the seasons.
Wyndham mayor Susan McIntyre said the event will be a unique celebration.
“This Kite Flying Festival was inspired by requests from the local community, and we have a warm and vibrant community in Tarneit that enjoys celebrating together,” Councillor McIntyre said.
The event will also include cultural performances, dance workshops and DJs will spin a mix of western and Bollywood tracks to keep crowds entertained. Food and drinks will be available to be purchased on the day.
Wyndham City’s Creative City portfolio holder, Councillor Marcel Mahfoud said:
“We’re pleased to incorporate the Kite Flying Festival as part of the successful Meet me in Tarneit series of events which is all about keeping residents connected, fit and the suburb looking inviting.”
The festival will take place at Hummingbird Reserve, Tarneit.
