Car boot sale APE Bellebranche in Écouflant

Car boot sale APE Bellebranche in Écouflant

The APE Bellebranche — Association des Parents d'Élèves de l'école Bellebranche — organizes its annual car boot sale in Écouflant (49000), a town on the banks of the Sarthe river on the northern outskirts of Angers. The particularity and charm of this event lie in its setting: the Sarthe riverbanks and the presence of a guinguette for the occasion.

The guinguette, a popular tradition on riverbanks, gives this car boot sale a festive and relaxed atmosphere that is not found in urban events. Families settle in for the day, enjoying the site, the musical and convivial entertainment of the guinguette, before or after browsing the flea market stalls.

Exhibitors offer the classics of a car boot sale: children's and adult clothing, books and educational games, toys, bicycles and sports equipment, crockery and household items, furniture and decoration, trinkets and curiosities. The profits from the event contribute to the financing of school activities and educational projects of the Bellebranche school.
