Why a Lemon Ball?Featherston has a long tradition of creative community events including balls. Starting with the Coronation Ball in 1953 and being revived by a group of passionate locals as the Time Travellers Ball held in 2017, 2018, and 2023.
Taking inspiration from the abundance of lemons that Featherston benefits from every season. The theme brings together ideas of fresh spring colours, the sharp fragrance and flavours of lemons, and the playful nature and irony of being a “lemon”.
We hope people will be inspired to take their own version of the theme and create a memorable evening. From the infamous quote “if life gives you lemons, make lemonade!”, to the fantastical Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, or the whimsical lyrics sung by Judy Garland “where troubles melt like lemon drops” in Over the Rainbow, right through to the symbolic lemon squeezers worn by our Anzac soldiers.
Create your jam, dress to the nines, be there or be a lemon square!
