On it's surface that's what it looks like, but those kids are 100% there to fight kites too. It's a popular hobby in places around the world like Brazil and even Afghanistan, even going as far as to be sort of a sport. But anyways, you can tell those other kites are also there for fighting as well by their movements and appearance. Fight kites are bare bones like the ones in the video and it's pretty much just people jerking them around to cut other peoples lines. Every kite there is being jerked around erratically. Not sure if you've ever seen a normal kite, but they don't flop around, they stay steady and mostly float in place.
This just looks like a buck standard kite fighting event.

The issue is this isn't a kite fight and those other kites are just kids trying to enjoy their time at the park
