Brad'tout de la Brèche

The Brad'tout de la Brèche in Chartres

Every Palm Sunday, the Brèche school, located place Drouaise in Chartres, transforms into a vast car boot sale thanks to Brad'tout, a family and solidarity event organized by the school's parents. This spring event brings together exhibitors from the neighborhood and bargain hunters from all over the Chartres urban area.

A car boot sale for the students

The Brad'tout de la Brèche is above all a solidarity event: all profits from the event are donated to fund the discovery class or school trip for the CM1-CM2 students of the school. Each table rented by an exhibitor directly contributes to enriching the educational experience of the children in the neighborhood. This associative and community dimension gives the Brad'tout a particularly warm character.

A friendly gathering on Place Drouaise

Place Drouaise and the surroundings of the Brèche school host for this occasion all kinds of exhibitors, offering clothes, toys, books, records, decorative items, and various curiosities. The friendly and relaxed atmosphere of the Brad'tout makes it an event appreciated by both exhibitors, happy to clear out their attics, and bargain hunters looking for good deals.

Catering and conviviality

To enhance the festive atmosphere of the day, a refreshment and catering stand is run on-site by the organizers. It is even possible to pre-order a full meal, and exhibitors who book two spots receive lunch for free. This attention to hospitality makes the Brad'tout de la Brèche much more than just a car boot sale: it is a true moment of neighborhood life.

Practical information for exhibitors

The price of a table is 7 euros, making the event very accessible for individuals wishing to clear out their belongings and contribute to a good cause. Reservations can be made by phone with the organizers. Palm Sunday traditionally marks the beginning of Holy Week and is an ideal spring moment for this outdoor event.
