On the occasion of Sophia Antipolis’s 50th anniversary, a human logo was organized this Friday at the Bouillides stadium. Nearly 1400 people gathered to form the number 50 on the field. Jean Leonetti, the mayor of Antibes-Juan-Les-Pins, was present.
Participants were numerous around noon to collect their ponchos in the colors of the logo (yellow, sky blue, and dark blue). Depending on the color, each person was invited to go to a specific area before the start signal for forming the giant 50.
The event was hosted by a DJ who got participants dancing.
“Sophia Antipolis has a harmonious future of innovation and strong growth. With this logo, we are preparing for the next 50 years,” said Jean Leonetti.
“It’s a good idea to involve the citizens. We love our city and we thank it.”
