The Assumption Day car boot sale in the medieval town of Airvault
Every 15 August, Airvault opens its streets and squares to private exhibitors for a popular family car boot sale. This characterful small town, nestled in the Thouet valley in northern Deux-Sèvres, provides an exceptional setting for a day of summer browsing.
Airvault is one of the finest communes in the department, known for its Saint-Pierre abbey church, a jewel of 11th-century Poitevin Romanesque art, and its medieval bridge spanning the Thouet.
Like any good country car boot sale, the Airvault event offers the classic mix from attics and cellars: clothing, toys, games, crockery, small furniture, tools, books, vinyl records, ornaments and decorative items.
Town centre, Airvault (79600). Free parking nearby. From Parthenay, follow the D938 towards Thouars (approximately 20 minutes).
15 August, all day. Free admission.
