Normally Bali Kite Association publishes a schedule for the season’s kite competitions, but they have decided not to do so for season 2024.
However, several kite competition organizers, both old and new, have on Facebook announced their competitions for the 2024 kite season. Till now (July 20) 52 (FIFTYTWO!!!) competitions have been announced until mid October. These competitions are compiled in the list below, according to the information in their posters. In some cases it is not quite clear what the location is for the competition. In a few cases there are multiple competitions on the same day in different locations in Bali.
As always the dates for a competition can change with short notice, so precaution and making a check-up in advance is adviced.
Please note: The below table is NOT an official schedule; it is merely a compilation of information (i.e. the posters for the competitions) posted on Facebook and Instagram, see Kite competition posters (link to Facebook).
A disclaimer, though: some of the posters from where the information is collected are very ’artistic’ and somewhat difficult to read, so my spelling in the BAKCEX list may contain errors.Several of the posters have been lifted from Instag
