Car boot sale of Briollay

Car boot sale of Briollay in July

In the middle of summer, the village of Briollay (49125) hosts its annual car boot sale on the banks of the Sarthe. This summer event benefits from an exceptional natural setting: the banks of the Sarthe offer a green and fresh backdrop, ideal for a day of bargain hunting in the open air.

Exhibitors set up on the banks or in the immediate vicinity of the river, creating a rustic market atmosphere rarely found in urban car boot sales. Individuals clearing out their attics, small professional second-hand dealers, and collectors offer a variety of items: clothing for all seasons, furniture and decoration, books and cultural media, toys and board games, crockery and kitchen utensils, tools and garden equipment, trinkets and curiosities.

The summer dimension of the event attracts families and holidaymakers present in the region in July. It's an opportunity to combine a stroll along the Sarthe with a bargain hunting session in a relaxed atmosphere.
