Brocante and Car Boot Sale of August 15th — Langeac

The flea market and car boot sale of August 15th in Langeac

Langeac is a commune in Haute-Loire, the capital of the Val d'Allier canton, nestled in the gorges of the Allier river about 50 kilometers northwest of Brioude. This dynamic town of some 4,000 inhabitants is an important hub of local life for the surrounding communes in the Allier, Desges, and Seuge valleys. Boulevard Charles de Gaulle, the main artery of the town center, regularly hosts major local events.

The Club du Quad du Val d'Allier, a passionate organizer

It is the Club du Quad du Val d'Allier that initiated this flea market and car boot sale on August 15th. This association of off-road motorized sports enthusiasts is involved in the cultural and associative life of Langeac by organizing this popular summer event. The August 15th flea market is one of the most anticipated events of the Langeac summer.

A complete festive program

Beyond the flea market and car boot sale themselves, the August 15th day is enriched with various activities. Refreshments and food are available on-site to allow everyone to cool down and eat. And for the little ones, a small train travels through the town center, bringing joy to children throughout the day. This combination makes the August 15th flea market a truly family event, where people come as much to hunt for treasures as for the entertainment.

An Assumption Day gathering

August 15th, Assumption Day, is a public holiday that traditionally marks the middle of summer. In Langeac, this date has been associated for several years with the large flea market on Boulevard Charles de Gaulle.

The event attracts treasure hunters from all over the Allier gorges region, Margeride, and northern Haute-Loire.
