Car boot sale of the Benoistville Festival Committee

Car Boot Sale of the Benoistville Festival Committee

The Benoistville Festival Committee (50340) enlivens the local life of this village on the Cap de La Hague with its annual car boot sale, a friendly event that brings together residents of the commune and surrounding villages. In this territory with a strong identity and authentic character, the car boot sale is a precious moment of sharing and sociability.

The Cap de La Hague is a region of Manche that has preserved its wild character and authenticity. The granite villages dotting this territory, the moors and cliffs bordering its coasts, the maritime and bocager identity of its inhabitants: all this gives associative events like the Festival Committee's car boot sale a special dimension, rooted in a strong and unique territory.

Exhibitors from Benoistville and neighboring towns offer the typical items of rural car boot sales in Cap de La Hague: granite and solid wood furniture, Norman crockery and earthenware, marine and bocager clothing, books and guides to coastal paths, old fishing and sailing equipment, trinkets and curiosities, traditional agricultural tools, toys and board games.

The originality of the car boot sales in Cap de La Hague often lies in items related to maritime life: buoys, ropes, anchors, lanterns, boat objects, model boats. These pieces, from the attics of fishing or pleasure boating families, delight collectors of maritime objects who sometimes come from afar for these coastal car boot sales.
