The "Fête du Citron" (Lemon Festival), an unique event in the world, attracts more than 200,000 visitors every year. For more than 15 days, come and enjoy the zest-flavored of Golden parades and Night-time parades(parades of citrus floats and animated by groups), admire the Exhibition of citrus patterns in the gardens Biovès; not forgetting to visit the Crafts Fair and the Festival of Orchids with unforgettable scents. Come and discover this fantasy world, and move to the rhythm of a simply unforgettable event.In 1928, Menton was still the number one lemon-growing region in Europe. An hotelier had the excellent idea of organising an exhibition of flowers and citrus fruit in the gardens of the Hôtel Riviera. It was so successful that, the following year, the event moved into the streets, with carts covered with orange and lemon.
Wishing to develop tourism, the municipality sought to give to this new event a typically local colour
The Lemon Festival was born in 1934
The Lemon of Menton obtained the recognition of its specificity and its excellence by a protected geographical index in 2015. This citrus fruit is for Menton an essential part of its history and its heritage.
