Greater Springfield Kite Festival 2026

Get ready to soar into a day of colour, fun and community spirit at the Greater Springfield Kite Festival 2026, a free family-friendly outdoor celebration of creativity and high-flying fun hosted by the Greater Springfield Indian Association INC at Woodcrest State College Oval in Springfield.

Date & Time: Saturday, 17 January 2026, from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
Venue: Woodcrest State College Oval, 38 Nev Smith Drive, Springfield QLD 4300, Australia.

What to Expect

The festival transforms the open oval into a vibrant sky-high playground where kites of all shapes, sizes and colours fill the air. Bring your own kite or pick one up on the day and join in the fun as the breeze lifts strings of bright patterns above the crowd. Alongside the flying displays, there’s live music, food trucks and dessert stalls, and interactive activities for kids that make it more than just a kite event — it’s a full day out for families and friends.

There’s a lively atmosphere throughout the day with market-style offerings and merchandise stalls. Whether you’re spectating or taking part, planes of colour overhead provide excellent photo opportunities and a fun, relaxed vibe.

Free & Community-Centred

The event is free to attend, making it a welcoming festival for the whole community. There’s plenty of space to fly your kite, and local leaders often attend, adding a community feel to the day’s festivities. Free street parking around the venue makes arrival and departure easy for families.
