The Saint-Sixte flea market

Saint-Sixte, a small village in the Forez plain located between Montbrison and Feurs, hosts its flea market every June, organized by the Festival Committee. The event takes over the village center, offering visitors the charm of a country flea market on a human scale.

Bargain hunting in a Forez village

The Saint-Sixte flea market brings together professionals and individuals. You can find antique furniture, porcelain and earthenware tableware, trinkets, old tools, and all sorts of flea market items. The atmosphere is relaxed, and prices are often more affordable than at large urban flea markets.

A typical village in the Forez plain

Saint-Sixte, a commune of about 400 inhabitants, retains an authentic rural character in the heart of the Forez plain. The church, the golden stone farms, and the surrounding fields create a peaceful setting for a morning of treasure hunting. The refreshment stand and catering offered by the Festival Committee allow you to extend your visit in a friendly village atmosphere.

An authentic country flea market

The Saint-Sixte flea market perfectly embodies the spirit of village flea markets found in the Forez plain. Far from large urban events, it offers a peaceful and authentic treasure hunting experience, where you take the time to chat with exhibitors and rummage through boxes in search of rare finds. The villagers actively participate in the event, with some bringing out pieces passed down through generations. It's also an opportunity to discover the local specialties of the Forez region: Fourme cheese, Coteaux du Forez wine, local crafts. The Festival Committee makes a point of offering quality catering, often based on local products, which contributes to the warm atmosphere of this country day.
