With the dual purpose of reviving the dying art of kite flying and promoting the beaches of Odisha as fun destinations, Young Indians (Yi) Bhubaneswar Chapter is hosting Uttaryana Kite Festival on January 14-15 at Marine Drive, Eco Retreat Park, in association with Odisha Tourism and Sports & Youth Services Department. 

FLY 360, expert kite flyers from Mumbai have arrived in a team of 8-10 pax to put up a designer kite & LED kite show. They will showcase the evolution of kite flying and also host modern kite making workshops for children and adults in a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) format. 

The event is being held to coincide with Makar Sankranti, a major festival in the country. Most of the Indian festivals are based on the position of the moon. Makar Sankranti is the only festival that is marked by the sun’s position and thus, always falls on January 14/15. Also, from this day, the sun starts getting brighter, meaning longer days. 

Young Indians (Yi) is an integral part of CII, formed in 2002 and works independently as a Pan India platform for young entrepreneurs & professionals to realise the dream of a developed nation. Through its programmes and initiatives, it reaches out to millions of youth across the country with the clarion call of  ‘We Can, We Will’. Yi holds more than 2500 activities every year under the pillar of Youth Leadership, National Building and Thought Leadership and connects with more than 14000 students through its institutional network, ‘Yuva’. Yi is also one of the founders of the G20 Young Entrepreneur’s Alliance of Young Entrepreneurs (CAYE -A).
