From 28 February to 8 March this picturesque town on the Piedmont side of Lake Maggiore hosted its annual Festa degli Agrumi citrus festival, now on its 19th year. It was an edition which focused entirely on blood oranges and the main exhibition spotlight was also on this type of orange, of the many varieties on show. It is just one of the many varieties visible in private gardens, in the themed exhibition set up in the church hall, photographic exhibitions, work by the students of the Ferrini Franzosini art high school and the Orange 5.0 landscape installation.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"18248\" src=\"https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/2016_DSCN8194-scaled-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18248\" srcset=\"https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/2016_DSCN8194-scaled-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/2016_DSCN8194-scaled-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/2016_DSCN8194-scaled-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/2016_DSCN8194-scaled-1-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/2016_DSCN8194-scaled-1-750x1000.jpg 750w, https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/2016_DSCN8194-scaled-1-1140x1520.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/2016_DSCN8194-scaled-1.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A composition displayed during the festival<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><h3>Expressions of femininity<\/h3><\/h3>\n\n<p>With its dozens of citrus trees grown in Cannero, the main exhibition focused on red as a natural colour and a \u201csymbol of femininity\u201d: energy, maturity, protection and inwardness.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"18255\" src=\"https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/iStock-1321814872-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/iStock-1321814872-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/iStock-1321814872-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/iStock-1321814872-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/iStock-1321814872-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/iStock-1321814872-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/iStock-1321814872-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/magazine.navigazionelaghi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/iStock-1321814872-1140x760.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blood oranges were the centre-stage players at this 19th edition of the traditional festival, an occasion on which local people also threw open the doors to their homes to visitors At this halfway point between the Carnival period and the beginning of spring, Cannero Riviera is transformed with an explosion of colours and fragrances.
