Brocante de Sauve

The Brocante de Sauve: Hunt for treasures for animals in an exceptional village

Every spring, the place de la Vabre in Sauve (30610) transforms into a large flea market and car boot sale. The event is organized by the association Sauve et les Animaux (ASELA), a non-profit organization dedicated to local animal protection. This beautiful event combines solidarity and conviviality in one of the most remarkable villages in the Gard region.

100 to 200 exhibitors on the place de la Vabre

The Brocante de Sauve brings together between 100 and 200 exhibitors, including individuals clearing out their attics and professionals in antiques and flea markets. On the place de la Vabre, stalls line up, offering furniture, tableware, paintings, clothing, books, toys, and collectibles of all kinds. Visitors have a wide choice for great finds, in a remarkable architectural setting.

The association Sauve et les Animaux (ASELA)

The ASELA association works for the protection of animals in the commune of Sauve and its surroundings. Sterilization of stray cats, adoption assistance, public awareness, and support for animals in distress are at the heart of its action. The profits from the spring flea market help finance these missions, which are often costly and essential for local wildlife. By participating in this event, exhibitors and visitors directly contribute to this noble cause.

Sauve, a classified village in the foothills of the Cévennes

Sauve (30610) is one of the most beautiful villages in the Gard region, at the foot of the Cévennes mountains. Labeled "Most Beautiful Detours in France", this medieval village clings to limestone rocks above the Vidourle river. Its cobbled streets, stone houses, hanging gardens, and medieval bridge make it one of the jewels of the Gard. The place de la Vabre, in the heart of the village, is the ideal location to host this flea market in an authentic and charming setting.

Editions in March and April

The Brocante de Sauve is generally held twice in the spring: a first edition in March and a second in April. This recurring schedule allows treasure hunters to enjoy two events in this exceptional setting, with a renewal of exhibitors and items offered each time.
