The 19th Annual Cape Fear Kite Festival presented by the Pleasure Island Chamber of Commerce kicks off on Friday afternoon in Kure Beach. Get a sneak peek of the kites in flights as up to 25 of the smaller kites take to the air from the beach just north of the Pier from 12-2pm. Festivities continue all weekend - visit the Chamber's website or social media for more details and updates.
Traffic delays are anticipated in Kure Beach on Saturday and Sunday due to the event at Fort Fisher State Recreation Area. If you have to travel either day, please be patient and give yourself extra time to get to your destination.
