Festivals and Events at which you can safely expect to see
one, some, or all of us playing and flying.

No doubt the list will grow as the festival period approaches. Other than these dates and places, TKF fliers have been known, on occasion, to even travel outside Norfolk ! Look for the club banner at events near you. Come and say hello.
