ACL Car boot sale

The ACL Labenne Car Boot Sale

Every summer, the ACL (Animation Culture Loisirs) association of Labenne organizes its annual car boot sale in the college parking lot, located at 324 rue du Stade, a stone's throw from the famous Labenne Zoo. This summer event brings together between 50 and 100 exhibitors, mixing individuals and professionals, for a day of outdoor treasure hunting on the Landes coast.

An ideal setting for treasure hunting

The college parking lot offers a large paved area, ideal for comfortably setting up stalls. Visitors can browse the stands from 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM, looking for bargains: dishes, clothes, toys, books, trinkets, and decorative objects. The ability to park one's vehicle behind their stand (limited spaces) is an appreciated asset by regular exhibitors.

Labenne, between ocean and forest

A coastal town in the Landes region located between Bayonne and Capbreton, Labenne benefits from a prime location between the Atlantic Ocean and the Landes forest. The village attracts many tourists every summer who come to enjoy its beaches and renowned zoo. The ACL car boot sale is part of the town's summer entertainment and is a popular family outing.

Food and conviviality

ACL offers on-site refreshments with coffee, cold drinks, and fast food: hot dogs, assorted sandwiches, and homemade pastries. Enough to regain strength between two treasure hunting sessions under the Landes sun.

Tips for treasure hunters

To make the most of the ACL car boot sale, it is recommended to arrive early, at opening time at 8:30 AM. The best deals often go in the first few hours. Remember to bring cash, as not all exhibitors may accept electronic payments. The college parking lot is easily accessible and offers enough spaces for visitors. Feel free to negotiate prices with exhibitors; that's also part of the charm of a car boot sale. After your treasure hunting session, take advantage of the proximity of the Labenne Zoo to extend your family outing.
