If you’re looking for a unique activity to do in Sanur, kite season is the perfect time to visit. Every year, the sky above Mertasari Beach, Sanur, is filled with vibrant, traditional Balinese kites — majestic, artistic, and rich with cultural meaning.
This year, the Bali Kite Festival returns and will be held on July 26–27, 2025, right at Mertasari Beach, just steps away from Mercure Resort Sanur. This annual event is initiated by the Bali Kite Arts Community.
What makes this kite festival special is its diverse showcase of traditional kites in various shapes and designs, including illustrations of Balinese mythological figures. The event also features a kite competition among local communities across Bali and offers cultural education for younger generations on the art of kite-making and flying.
This event is not only a captivating sight for visitors but also a celebration of Balinese heritage, preserving a tradition that has been passed down for generations.
