Bourse aux livres Valence

The Connétable book sale: a meeting place for readers

Every spring, the Connétable hall, rue Brunet in Valence, hosts the book sale organized by Activ'Senior. In a warm setting, hundreds of second-hand books are offered at low prices: crime novels, French and foreign literature, essays, travel books, biographies, and practical books form an eclectic range that delights reading enthusiasts of all backgrounds.

An event in the spirit of shared reading

The Connétable book sale is more than just a second-hand market: it's a meeting moment for reading enthusiasts. Participants can drop off books they wish to share and discover new works offered by other readers. The event promotes the circulation of books and their continued use in reading, far from recycling or disposal channels.

Activ'Senior, a player in Valence's social life

Activ'Senior is an association dedicated to people over 60 in the Valence area, offering cultural activities, outings, and social gatherings. The book sale is part of this social and cultural animation initiative, allowing all generations to come together around a common passion. Access is free and the event is held from 2 PM, leaving everyone time to come at their own pace.
