43rd ASCA Foot Flea Market of Wittelsheim

43 years of treasure hunting in Wittelsheim

The 43rd ASCA Foot Flea Market of Wittelsheim is one of the oldest and most anticipated popular events in the Haut-Rhin potash basin. For over four decades, ASCA Football Wittelsheim has organized this outdoor event which brings together a crowd of bargain hunters, families, and curious individuals every spring, all looking to find a rare gem or simply enjoy a beautiful day outdoors.

An outdoor flea market in the heart of the potash basin

Wittelsheim, a town of about 8,000 inhabitants in the Haut-Rhin department (68310), is intimately linked to the history of the Alsatian potash mines. This flea market is part of the tradition of large popular events that keep local associative life vibrant. Private individuals and associations set up stalls outdoors to offer an eclectic selection: adult and children's clothing, toys and games, books and comics, tableware and table arts, tools, electronics, vinyl records, trinkets, and decorative objects.

ASCA Football, a pillar of local associative life

ASCA Football Wittelsheim is more than just a sports club: it is a central player in the social and cultural life of the town. The organization of this flea market is one of the club's main sources of funding, helping to support the junior sections, maintain sports facilities, and finance team travel. Each edition mobilizes numerous volunteers who welcome exhibitors and visitors in a warm and relaxed atmosphere.

A convivial day for the whole family

Beyond the treasure hunting itself, the ASCA Foot flea market is a true popular festival. The club's refreshment stand offers hot and cold drinks, sandwiches, grilled sausages, and light meals throughout the day. Parents, children, seniors, and bargain hunters mingle and meet in a friendly atmosphere typical of large Alsatian associative events. Entry is completely free for visitors, making it an event accessible to all budgets.

Practical Information

The market is held outdoors, so clothing suitable for early April weather is recommended. Exhibitors can register directly with the club. Parking is available near the stadium and in the surrounding streets. Food and refreshments are provided by ASCA Football Wittelsheim.
