Car boot sale and Horse Fair of Geaune

The Geaune Horse Fair and Car Boot Sale

For over twenty-five years, Geaune has hosted its Horse Fair accompanied by a large car boot sale. This unusual event combines equestrian tradition and flea market, attracting a diverse audience to this historic bastide in Tursan. Horses, donkeys, and ponies mingle with bric-a-brac stalls in a festive and rural atmosphere.

An event rooted in tradition

The Geaune horse fair perpetuates an ancestral tradition of Landes fairs. Horse and equine owners meet to present their animals, while the stable clear-out allows for the purchase of second-hand riding equipment. Horse-drawn carriages add a picturesque touch to the event, delighting young and old alike.

Geaune, bastide of Tursan

Geaune, founded in 1318, is the capital of Tursan, a renowned wine-growing region in the Landes. The bastide, with its central arcaded square and fortified church, offers an authentic setting for this traditional fair. The car boot sale extends through the streets of the bastide, allowing visitors to hunt for treasures while discovering Geaune's architectural heritage. The Tursan winegrowers' cellar, located nearby, completes the visit for wine lovers.
