Fort-Mahon-Plage Firefighters Flea Market

A charity flea market facing the English Channel

Every spring, Fort-Mahon-Plage hosts the flea market organized by the Firefighters Association. This charity event, now a fixture in the local calendar, brings together volunteer firefighters for a day of friendliness and solidarity. The proceeds help fund the association's social and sporting activities, as well as equipment for the volunteer firefighters of the station.

A varied display in the heart of the resort

On the exhibitors' stands you will find the classic range of seaside flea markets: everyday items, tableware, clothes, childhood toys, books and comics, furniture, small decorative pieces, vinyl records and unusual trinkets. Holidaymakers staying in the Bay of Somme area willingly join local bargain hunters to browse the tables in a relaxed and family atmosphere.

Located at the northernmost tip of the Somme department, Fort-Mahon-Plage is a family-friendly seaside resort known for its vast sandy beach and proximity to the Bay of Somme. The seafront, lined with Belle Époque villas and shops, provides a pleasant setting for a day of bargain hunting.

A warm firefighter atmosphere

Beyond the bargains, the Fort-Mahon firefighters flea market stands out for its warm atmosphere. The firefighters handle logistics, the refreshment bar and catering, and are happy to explain their commitment to the community. A great opportunity to support the Picardy coast's volunteer firefighters while finding good deals.

Tips for bargain hunters

To enjoy the day, arrive early: the best pieces leave in the first hours. Stand rates remain affordable, and registration is done with the association by phone or email. Bring a windbreaker: even in May, the Picardy coast can be breezy.
