Every year, the city transforms into a living stage, with spectacular parades, decorated floats, artistic performances, and live shows that celebrate the carnival theme. The heart of the celebration is the &#8220;Bataille de Fleurs&#8221; (Battle of Flowers), an event that mixes parades of fresh flowers, dancing, and music. The city of Nice comes alive with vibrant colors, allegory, and tradition, making this festival a truly unique experience.<\/p>\n<p><em>From February 15 to March 2, 2025.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Theme: &#8220;Kings of the Oceans&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The 91st edition of the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/montecarloliving.com\/en\/events\/the-2025-menton-lemon-festival-an-unmissable-edition-of-magic-colors-and-citrus-scents-18770\/\">Menton Lemon Festival<\/a><\/strong>.
