3rd Edition Vasles Flea Market

The Vasles Flea Market: A Growing Tradition

For its third edition, the Vasles flea market confirms its place in the village's event calendar. After a first edition that launched the movement and a second that amplified the success, this annual event has become an eagerly awaited moment for residents and visitors from surrounding villages. The village of Vasles, with its peaceful streets and welcoming square, provides an ideal setting for leisurely browsing.

Vasles, an Emblematic Village of the Gâtine

Vasles is a village in the Gâtine Poitevine, located about twenty kilometres north of Parthenay. The commune is best known for its Mouton Village, a unique space in France dedicated to sheep breeds from around the world. This rural and agricultural heritage gives the flea market a particular flavour: you may find objects related to farming life, old tools and countryside curiosities.

What You Can Find at the Flea Market

The exhibitors, mainly private individuals, offer a classic but ever-renewed range of second-hand items: clothing, toys, books, crockery, ornaments, small antiques, garden tools and decorative objects. Prices are affordable and negotiable, delighting families and bargain hunters.

An Authentic Village Atmosphere

The Vasles flea market stands out for its village-fête atmosphere. Organisers provide a refreshment bar and on-site catering, allowing visitors to extend their morning of browsing over a drink or a convivial meal. It is also an opportunity to discover Vasles and its surroundings, with its hedgerows, hiking paths and preserved rural heritage.
