Albert Toys, Clothes and Books Fair

A triple fair for families

This event's unique feature is combining three complementary themes for families: toys, clothes and books. The extended formula lets parents renew most of their children's needs in a single visit.

Albert's covered market

An iconic municipal asset, the covered market hosts markets, exhibitions, salons and fairs year-round. The indoor format guarantees comfort in sometimes fickle spring weather.

What you find

Toys: soft toys, dolls, figurines, board games, puzzles, educational games, miniature cars, video games, older consoles. Clothes: children's clothes 0-14, shoes, coats, sportswear, maternity wear. Books: children's albums, youth and teen novels, comics, paperbacks, some textbooks.

Albert, Somme 1916 memorial town

A town of about 10,000 dominated by Notre-Dame-de-Brebières basilica with its famous Golden Virgin. Destroyed in WWI, rebuilt in coherent art deco. The Somme 1916 Museum in medieval underground galleries offers an immersive tour of trench life.

A practical and friendly rendezvous

For Albert, Péronne, Bapaume and Doullens area families, this spring fair is particularly useful. Children grow fast; this allows seasonal transitions without breaking the budget.
