Brocante Vide-Grenier XVHP d'Excideuil

The rugby flea market in Excideuil

Every summer, the XVHP d'Excideuil rugby club organizes its flea market and car boot sale on the Place des Promenades, in the heart of this medieval town in the Périgord Vert. With a maximum of 60 exhibitors, this human-sized event encourages exchanges between sellers and bargain hunters in a friendly and sporty atmosphere.

A generous welcome for exhibitors

XVHP d'Excideuil stands out for its warm welcome: coffee and a croissant are offered to each exhibitor in the morning. Visitors and exhibitors can then enjoy a bar, grills, fries, and ice cream throughout the day. A raffle is organized at the entrance, with proceeds going directly to the club's rugby school, training tomorrow's young players.

Excideuil, medieval town of Périgord Vert

Excideuil is a charming small town in the Périgord Vert, dominated by the remains of its castle, formerly owned by the viscounts of Limoges and then the Talleyrands. The commune, crossed by the Loue river, an affluent of the Isle, has remarkable architectural heritage with its turreted houses, its church, and its market halls. The Place des Promenades, which hosts the flea market, is a tree-lined area in the center of the town, ideal for a day of outdoor bargain hunting.

Supporting local rugby

The XVHP d'Excideuil is a rugby club deeply rooted in the sporting and associative life of the Périgord Vert. The organization of this annual flea market helps finance the club's activities, particularly its rugby school, which trains young oval ball enthusiasts from across the region.
