The GKA Kite World Tour takes the wellbeing of its riders, tour followers and on-site crew very seriously. Which is why we are closely monitoring, and following the advice of national and international health organisations in light of the worldwide pandemic of the Coronavirus.

We would like to announce that currently, all GKA Kite World Tour dates are going ahead as planned. However we are closely monitoring the current situation and staying up to date on the most recent developments in each country and region. Events may be subject to change, or postponed in order to keep everyone involved safe and in good health, if the GKA feel it is the best course of action.

We will keep you updated with the latest news as and when it happens.

Yours faithfully,

Jörgen Vogt

The moment you have all been waiting for is finally here, and no, we are not referring to the weekend or any upcoming holiday that brings a twinkle to your eyes. We are talking about one of the greatest kite events since the dawn of mankind. While there are many great kiteboarding locations around the globe, perhaps one of the most historical and elusive is that of Hood River, Oregon, the birthplace of park riding and the pinnacle force that sustains its continuation.

This year the Kite Park League is proud to announce a new partnership with THE QATAR AIRWAYS GKA KITE WORLD TOUR to present THE QATAR AIRWAYS GKA KITE PARK LEAGUE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 2024.

The event will be held from August 3rd - 10th and will crown this years QATAR AIRWAYS GKA KITE PARK WORLD CHAMPIONS 2024 in both men’s and women’s divisions. Without question, this will be a week to remember.

Stay Tuned and be ready.
