Brocante de la Toussaint de Figeac

The Toussaint Flea Market of Figeac: the big autumn event

As autumn settles its ochre and golden colors on the forests of Quercy, Figeac hosts its great Toussaint flea market. Organized by the Association des Brocanteurs du Figeacois, this autumn event brings together professionals of flea markets and antiques in the exceptional setting of the medieval center of Figeac. It is the second to last major event of the year before the Christmas flea market.

A medieval setting for an autumn flea market

The medieval Hall of Place Carnot, Rue de la République, and Place Champollion are the stage for this autumn flea market. At the end of October, Figeac dons its autumn attire: the plane trees begin to shed their leaves, the russet stones of the medieval city take on warmer tones in the fading light. In this particular atmosphere, the flea market dealers set up their stalls, sheltered under the Hall or outdoors depending on the weather, offering furniture, decorative arts, and collectibles to a loyal clientele from all over the Lot.

About fifty professionals at the event

As with the association's other flea markets, it is professionals in flea markets and antiques who officiate during the Toussaint Flea Market. Their selection of items reflects the season: character furniture, lighting, antique textiles, paintings, clocks, and interior decoration objects. It is often an opportunity to prepare for the end-of-year holidays, in a calmer atmosphere than that of the Christmas flea market. Collectors particularly appreciate this autumn event for its intimate and studious ambiance.

In the calendar of the Brocanteurs du Figeacois

The Toussaint Flea Market is the fifth and second-to-last major event of the year organized by the association. After the spring, July, August, and Toussaint flea markets, the Brocanteurs du Figeacois conclude their season with the Grand Christmas Flea Market in late December. This structured calendar makes Figeac a key location for professional flea markets in the Lot. Contact: [email protected].
