The 2015 Griffith Citrus Sculptures are a unique exhibition in Australia and are recognised as a Destination NSW Flagship event. The sculptures have grown from just five in 1995 to to around 70 large 3D sculptures in 2015 and are a feature of the Griffith Festival of Gardens. The sculptures are based on the famous lemon sculptures in Menton, France, and with Griffith being a major citrus producing region in Australia, the sculpture idea was a good one. After consulting local engineers and contacting France, Griffith was granted permission to use their method of securing the fruit. The Citrus Sculptures have become a major visitor attraction bringing thousands of people to Griffith every year.
