Kites Fly In Glasgow As Commonwealth Sport Look Ahead To Amdavad 2030 Centenary Games
Commonwealth Sport President Dr Donald: Glasgow 2026 gold medallist Reuben Ward of Scotland and silver medallist Murali Sreeshankar of India joined representatives from Commonwealth Sport and Team India in looking ahead to the 2030 Commonwealth Games, being hosted by Amdavad in Gujarat.
Inspired by Amdavad's annual kite festival, 30 children from the local community group Glasgow Indians Association marked the occasion by flying kites emblazoned with Scottish and Indian flags through the streets of Glasgow.
The kites were flown along John Street, which contains the City Chambers – the spot where Sir Chris Hoy and Greg McHugh entered the TARDIS during this year's Opening Ceremony. The two-day kite festival is the beating heart of Gujarat's cultural calendar, attracting master kite flyers, makers and spectators from across the globe, with thousands of kites of every shape, size and colour filling the sky.
