30th Flea Market Car Boot Sale — Amicale de Givraines

The 30th anniversary of the Amicale de Givraines Flea Market (45)

In 2025, the Amicale de Givraines reached a significant milestone: the 30th anniversary of its flea market car boot sale, created in 1995. To mark this event with due importance, the association meticulously planned every detail of this August 31, 2025 edition, from entertainment to catering, including exemplary organization that has earned the loyalty of its exhibitors and visitors for three decades.

Thirty years of conviviality between Beauce and Gâtinais

Founded in 1995 on the initiative of a few motivated residents, the Givraines flea market has become a pillar of the local community over the years. Every last Sunday of August, the village of Givraines, 10 km from Pithiviers, opens its doors to exhibitors and visitors for a day of second-hand goods that goes far beyond a simple second-hand market, becoming a true festive and cultural event.

Roman animations with the CENABUM association

The 30th edition was distinguished by the presence of the CENABUM association, which offered historical and cultural animations in a Roman atmosphere. Reenactments, costumes, and fun activities transported visitors to antiquity, providing an original and memorable experience for families and the curious. This cultural dimension contributed to making this anniversary event even more exceptional.

Ten euros for four meters: accessible pricing

For this edition, the Amicale de Givraines maintained accessible pricing: €10 for 4 meters of stand space, with a complimentary drink per stand as a warm gesture towards the exhibitors. Unclaimed spots at 7:30 AM are reassigned to new arrivals, ensuring optimal occupancy of the event.

Catering and festive atmosphere on site

On-site catering allowed visitors and exhibitors to have lunch without leaving the premises, contributing to the festive atmosphere of the day. The Givraines flea market is also about this care taken in welcoming and ensuring the comfort of all participants, making this annual event much more than just a second-hand market: a village festival in its own right.
