The Lemon Festival (“Fete du Citron“) in Menton this year had a really interesting way to celebrate the lemons and oranges – thousands of fruits were used to create several creative sculptures and mosaics, all having as theme the cinema. The festival takes place during Feb 5th – Mar 3rd, and it is supported by the local tourism office to encourage visits to the city. We’ve gathered below some pictures from the festival to understand what made us write about it:

More photos from the festival on Flick here. My take on this is that the organizers really made this year’s festival viral – and I bet the bill is not that big. After all, they do have plenty of lemons & oranges
