The 27th Annual Lemon Festival is around the corner, and Chula Vista is ready to host another citrus festival, organized by the Downtown Chula Vista Association.
On Saturday, August 17, Chula Vista’s Third Avenue will be the home of this local lemon capital of fun on this particular date from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm.
This lemon paradise will offer a variety of fun things to enjoy, such as lemon-themed vendors, a costume contest, a lemon cook-off competition, a kid’s fun zone, and photo opportunities with Tarty the Lemon.
“Without a doubt, the Lemon Festival stands as one of the most cherished traditions among locals here in Downtown Chula Vista,” said Dominic Li Mandri, District Manager of the Downtown Chula Vista Association. “Year after year, tens of thousands of South Bay residents and San Diegans alike flock to Third Avenue to enjoy this beloved event. It’s truly amazing to witness the growing enthusiasm surrounding the Lemon Festival and we can’t wait to see you all there!”
