Established in Nepali year 2060 (2003), Changa Chait is organized and held at Club Himalaya, Nagarkot. The event and concept was the brainchild of Mr. Yogendra Sakya, chairman of Ace Hotels & Resorts. The last Changa Chait held in 2064 (2007) drew in 2,000-3,000 visitors per day, over 10,000 visitors over a span of 3 days and over 40 corporate houses(banks, industries, travel agents & many more) participated in this fun Kite Flying competition. The event also hosts food stalls, games, and other fun activities for non participants.
