Car boot sale and Chestnut Festival in Gragnague

Every autumn, the Comité des Fêtes de Gragnague organizes a car boot sale as part of the traditional Chestnut Festival. This dual event combines the pleasure of treasure hunting with the conviviality of a gourmet village festival. Private sellers offer a wide variety of second-hand items: clothes, toys, books, trinkets, crockery, and various objects, while food stalls offer grilled chestnuts, mulled wine, and local specialties.

Gragnague, a village east of Toulouse

Gragnague is a commune of about 3,500 inhabitants, located about fifteen kilometers east of Toulouse. The village benefits from a pleasant semi-rural setting, between the hills of Lauragais and the plain of the Hers. The Chestnut Festival is one of the highlights of the local autumn, attracting visitors from well beyond the commune. The addition of a car boot sale to this event enhances its appeal and allows families to enjoy a full day of leisure.

The combination of the car boot sale and the Chestnut Festival creates a unique atmosphere, mixing the smell of roasted chestnuts with the finds of treasure hunters. Children enjoy the entertainment, while adults browse the stalls in search of bargains. The refreshment stand and food complete this convivial day dedicated to good food and good cheer.
