Belmont Easter Car Boot Sale

The Easter Car Boot Sale in Belmont

Every year at Easter, the Comité des fêtes de Belmont organizes a car boot sale in the village sports hall and car park. This spring event takes advantage of the Easter weekend to bring together exhibitors and visitors in this small commune in the Gers, offering a full day of treasure hunting from 6:30 AM to 6 PM.

An Early Start for Bargain Hunters

One of the unique features of the Belmont car boot sale is its opening at 6:30 AM, a practice appreciated by the most motivated bargain hunters who know that the best finds are made at dawn. From the early hours, connoisseurs scour the stalls in search of rare gems: antique trinkets, crockery, tools, vinyl records, retro toys, or small furniture. Families arrive later in the morning to enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of the Easter car boot sale.

Sports Hall and Car Park: A Suitable Space

The choice of the sports hall and car park as the venue provides ample space for exhibitors, with the possibility of shelter in case of spring rain. This dual indoor-outdoor configuration is an advantage for an April event, ensuring the car boot sale takes place regardless of weather conditions. Outdoor stalls benefit from natural light, while the hall offers a comfortable covered space.

Belmont, a Village in the Gers Countryside

Belmont is a small rural commune in the Gers, nestled in the characteristic rolling landscape of Gascony. This mixed-farming area, with its fields of sunflowers, wheat, and Armagnac vines, retains an authentic character that gives Gers villages their charm. Visitors to the car boot sale can extend their day with a walk in the surrounding countryside, discovering rural paths and Gascon panoramas.

A Friendly Easter Gathering

The Easter weekend is traditionally a busy time for car boot sales in the Gers. The Comité des fêtes de Belmont takes advantage of this peak period to offer a friendly and family-oriented event. Entry is free for visitors, and the atmosphere is one of Gascon good humor. It's an opportunity for family treasure hunting, combining Easter egg hunts with the search for bargains.
