Braderie du 15 Août de Méribel

August 15 Braderie in the heart of Méribel

Every August 15, Méribel Centre hosts the traditional Braderie des Commerçants, a festive and popular event bringing together resort shops and bargain-hunting visitors. In the heart of the Trois Vallées, the world's largest ski area, this summer clearance sale is the perfect opportunity to gear up at reduced prices in an exceptional mountain setting.

Ski and mountain gear at slashed prices

The braderie's distinctive feature is the quality of equipment on offer. Sports shops — which equip skiers from around the world each winter — clear their stock at exceptional prices: skis, boots, Gore-Tex technical clothing, down jackets, backpacks and hiking equipment.

Entertainment and summer atmosphere

Beyond shopping, the Méribel braderie is a true celebration. Various entertainment punctuates the day: sports demonstrations, Savoyard food tastings and background music create a joyful, laid-back atmosphere.

Méribel, jewel of the Trois Vallées

Founded in 1938 by an English lord captivated by the beauty of the Allues valley, Méribel has preserved its authentic Savoyard architecture with wooden and stone chalets. In summer, the resort offers hiking, mountain biking, paragliding and access to the Vanoise National Park.
