EAA will host an exciting family kite-flying event on June 21. The Kite Society of Wisconsin & Illinois, Milwaukee's Gift of Wings kite store, and WROE Radio sponsor this event.

The Kite Festival will be held on the grounds behind the EAA AirVenture Museum in Oshkosh from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. A series of world-class performers will stage kite-flying displays throughout the day to musical accompaniment. Featured performers include Chicago Fire, Team Pegasus, Mike Delfar, Jim Wirt, Paula Schenk, Paul Koepke, Dan Newman, Josh and Zak Gordon and Charlie Sotich, and The Giant Kites of Yvers LaForest and Anne Clement. Charlie Sotich will be making free kites for the kids.

Don't miss the Grand Launch of 200 kites at noon. Food and beverages will be for sale during this free event.

This exciting annual event combines two classic examples of American engineering. It pairs P-51 Mustang Warbirds from WWII with a wide selection of Ford Mustang cars. (The event is also open to all other Ford-powered vehicles.)

The event takes place on the grounds of the world-famous EAA AirVenture Museum, which displays a collection of more than 140 immaculate aircraft, including the world's oldest surviving P-51 Mustang. Throughout the day, rides will be available in a variety of vintage airplanes from the Museum's acclaimed Pioneer Airport facility.

Outstanding cars will receive trophies and, on a space-available basis, all cars have the chance to 'pony up' to a P-51 for a picture. Event registration is $20, which includes Museum admission for all vehicle occupants. If you would like to come and see the show, spectator admission is included in regular Museum admission.
