Fly with me

Afghan artists across the UK and Europe present a festival of Afghan kite-flying, storytelling, music, poetry and dance. Spread across 16 locations in the UK and Europe, Fly With Me invites you to make and fly Afghan kites on 20 August 2022, marking one year since the fall of Afghanistan to the Taliban.

In an epic aerial act of welcome, people everywhere will celebrate Afghan culture through the simple joy of kite flying, and together call for equal and fair treatment of all people seeking safety, including those from Afghanistan.

Join in to fill the skies with thousands of kites
