Kitty Hawk Events - 2026 Schedule

Young anglers and families are invited to cast a line and enjoy a morning of fun at the annual Kitty Hawk Youth Fishing Tournament, returning to the Kitty Hawk Fishing Pier for another exciting day on the water. Hosted by the Kitty Hawk Police Department and community partners, the popular event gives kids an opportunity to experience the excitement of Outer Banks fishing in a relaxed, family-friendly setting.

This annual show features a superb variety of creations from 24 Outer Banks artists whose specialties include painting, pottery, jewelry, photography, glass, fiber arts, collage, wood and more. Admission to the show is free on both days and there is plenty of free parking. In addition to the handcrafted art, you can gather information about two local charities – N.E.S.T. and Beach Food Pantry – that participate in the show. A portion of artists' entrance fees are donated to the charities.
