Painting the town red in Morzine..

Imprint: Updated 15 April 2016

To celebrate l'Etape du Tour on 10th July & the arrival of the last stage of the Tour de France 2016 before they arrive in Paris, Morzine are painting the town red, literally!

The idea is to make Morzine as red as possible, to be visible from the air and on the roads.

Dress in red, cover your windows in red polka dots, trees, shops, bars, roofs, terraces.. the swimming pool..

The most original outfits will win VIP seats at the arrival of the Tour de France on 23rd July. Post your pictures to this event to be in with a chance of winning.
