The brocante de Velles is one of the largest flea markets in the department of Indre with around 320 exhibitors. Located at the gates of Châteauroux, this large-scale event attracts thousands of bargain hunters from all over Berry and beyond for May 8th.
The Brocante de Velles is a major event in the flea market calendar of the Indre, with no less than 320 exhibitors spread throughout the village and its surroundings. This large regional flea market offers a considerable choice: antique furniture, crockery, earthenware, folk art, tools, rare books, vinyl records, vintage clothing, old toys, lighting, embroidered linens, ironwork, collector's items and curiosities of all kinds. The scale of the event allows for the discovery of both high-quality pieces sought after by antique dealers and second-hand items at modest prices.
Velles is a commune of about 1,300 inhabitants located a few kilometers south of Châteauroux, the prefecture of the Indre. The village overlooks the Indre valley in a landscape transitioning between the Champagne berrichonne and the Boischaut Sud. The commune has a beautiful Romanesque church from the 12th century and interesting architectural heritage. Its proximity to Châteauroux and its accessibility by national road make it an ideal location to host an event of this magnitude.
The brocante de Velles is considered an unmissable event by bargain hunters from Berry. The event attracts several thousand visitors. Catering is widely available on-site. Admission is free and parking is organized.
The grand flea market of Velles returns on May 8, 2026, with 320 exhibitors.
