2025 AKA Convention and Grand National Kite Competition

Join us at the AKA Convention in Niagara Falls, September 29 to October 4, 2025. The convention will be held at the Niagara Falls Convention Center, with the Sheraton Niagara Falls host hotel located right across the street. The event will feature a kite art/artist recognition reception, a Great Hall for indoor kite flying, and wonderful food at our Welcome reception, the Kite Art reception, the Auction, and the Awards banquet. Flying fields, mass ascensions, and competition will be held at Gratwick Riverside Park, located right on the Niagara River in North Tonawanda, New York. The park offers huge flying fields, with a possible second field, and is the home field used by the local Great Lakes Kite Flyers club. Prevailing winds are typically from the southwest, making for smooth flying conditions. Don't miss out on this exciting event!
