The car boot sale of the Arènes de Vic-Fezensac

Every spring, the Arènes de Vic-Fezensac (32190) host a large car boot sale organized by the association Capucin-Tivoli. This popular event takes over the arena and its surroundings, offering an original and spacious setting for exhibitors and visitors. Individuals offer clothes, toys, books, crockery, trinkets, furniture, and all sorts of second-hand items.

The Arènes, an emblematic venue

The Arènes de Vic-Fezensac are one of the city's most emblematic monuments, known throughout the southwest for hosting the famous Fêtes de la Pentecôte (Pentecôtavic) and their Landes bullfights. With a capacity of over 6,000 seats, these arenas form an imposing amphitheater that is remarkably well-suited for organizing a car boot sale. The stands offer shade to visitors, while the arena floor and surrounding areas allow for numerous stalls.

Entertainment and conviviality

Beyond treasure hunting, the car boot sale at the Arènes offers additional entertainment. A vintage motorcycle gathering attracts fans of beautiful machinery. The refreshment stand and snack bar allow visitors to eat on-site in a friendly and family atmosphere.

Vic-Fezensac, a Gascon city

Vic-Fezensac, a sub-prefecture of the Gers department with about 3,600 inhabitants, is a town with a rich Gascon heritage. In addition to its arenas and Pentecost festival, the town has a renowned weekly market and a covered market hall. The car boot sale at the Arènes contributes to the liveliness of this charming town in the heart of Gascony. For bargain hunters, it's also an opportunity to stroll through the streets of the town center, discover local shops, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of this Gascon bastide.
