The Tourism department in collaboration with Global Media Box will be hosting the second edition of Tamil Nadu International Kite Festival from August 12 to 15 at Mamallapuram.
“This year, we will have around 200 kites from various countries. The theme for this year is Save Marine Life,” said Sandeep Nanduri, Managing Director of Tamil Nadu Tourism Development Corporation (TTDC). He said that a curtain raiser event will be held at Kanniyakumari. “This will happen a few days before the event at Mamallapuram. Kanniyakumari is a prominent tourism destination so we wanted to have the event there,” he said.
The Tourism department is organising a food festival at the Island Grounds and the date for this event is yet to be finalised. The plan was to have cuisines from across Tamil Nadu as well as other States.
