Oklahoma Wind Festival

Saturday, April 15 | 10am – 2pm
Love’s Travel Stops Great Lawn

Windy days create great energy to power kites, paper airplanes, pinwheels, wind chimes, and more!

Join us to celebrate the marvels of wind and motion, compliments of Mother Nature.

We’ll be flying kites and other wind-powered devices, learning about different energy sources and meteorology, plus hosting STEM-related activities to join in on.

This event is free and open to the public.

The first 100 people to check in will receive a complimentary kite.

NEW THIS YEAR!
Bring your kites to fly at Scissortail Park on Saturday, April 15 and we’ll be awarding four different prizes throughout the day!

We’ll have judges out on the Love’s Travel Stops Great Lawn checking the skies to select one winner in each category. Each winner will receive a $50 Eat at Spark gift card!
