For regional locations, Kite Festivals are amazing experiences involving some of the top North American professional kite fliers accompanied by community flying zones. Our kid's kite program can equip up to 1,000 children with a kite kit accompanied by an attendant assembly assistant. To highlight kite flying popularity, the American Kite Association is the largest kite association in the world while Canada's Kite Federation operates nationwide.
Our international arts festivals are the result of a North American search and selection of existing long-term, free admission, family-oriented events involving community, tourism, and economic development assessments which we have then executed for more than a decade.
Community engagement is what we are all about with over 70% of our audiences being families. Even better, the fun is for everyone, regardless of their economic status. It's not uncommon for us to hear on how much entire families both young and old enjoyed our incredible, world class arts talent in the great outdoors.
Please reach us at if you cannot find an answer to your question.
We help business, community associations, municipalities along with private entities plan, produce and execute their chosen festival from our suite of festivals to a standard reflecting similar North American circuit events in their respective fields. Once set up in framework, these attractions are quite easy to repeat year after year.
As a monthly adminstration subcontractor, we assist with all aspects of your first year launches. This includes budget assistance, performer selections, logistics, programming, marketing, sponsor packages, grant application assistance, collaborations, etc. We work in sync with your project oversight lead and provide all oversight necessary to get your annual attraction going.
Generally NO however travel and hotel accommodation (often arranged collaboratively by the downtown community but not always) is the host's responsibility. Buskers are compensated directly by audiences, Chalk artists gather to share insights while applying their craft while kite flyers just want to fly with fellow flyers and enjoy the sky and camaradie. The incredible world class calibre of these special participants amaze festival goers and what's even better is this art is accessible to everyone in the community, regardless of economic status.
Nonprofit societies including downtown business, community organizations and with specific festivals, municipalities.
Any event involving professional artists from away includes forward planning. As there are a number of buskers, street painting and kite festivals each year in Canada and the USA, we typically like to book participants prior to the second quarter. We add most of the 'performers' at the these events are community members although with buskers that would entail an expanded music component.
They most often do and typically two students who serve as flight mates to your office lead. Roles intermix but primarily one is more HR focused, the other business administration. Having two oversight admin members also enables coverage for HQ tent operations during event hours. With window inbetween, their delivery program can include two inaugural launches and with extended summer employment even three. Once your lead knows what it is they didn't know in year one, ops are quite streamlined delivering an exsiting program. Note that it is an early year application window for students in summer.
Sure. Depending on availability, we offer super professional family entertainment including Cirque du Soleil performers who travel the summer busker circuit, a wide variety of cruise ship industry entertainment acts, numerous 3D pavement chalk painters for major event openings, or the opportunity to host North America's largest kites, we cover a lot of fun.
