Where is Festival Citrusov (Orange Festival)?

I've seen interesting pictures online of Festival Citrusov (Orange Festival) in the South of France, but so far I've been unable to determine exactly in which city it's located. Browsing, I just found more of the same photos and the only location noted is "South of France." Anyone know where it's held -- and when?

Try Menton. Winter - Spring. It's when the crop is ready.

Citrusov is not a French word - seems to be someone from another language circulating photos.

However, it is the Festival in Menton, 16 Feb to 6 March 2013

I'm pretty sure it's Slovenian - so why in Menton?

The official site, with correct French name, is:

Thanks for the correct name of the festival and the link. I know enough French to know "citrusov" isn't French, but it was the only name I had to work with at the time. Rastaguytoday figured out I was looking for the festival in Menton. Apologies to French-speakers.
