The big festival of Orgères-en-Beauce: car boot sale, fair and entertainment

Every spring, the commune of Orgères-en-Beauce hosts one of the most anticipated and complete events in the department of Eure-et-Loir. This festive day brings together in a single event a car boot sale with free pitches, a craft fair, a funfair and numerous shows and entertainment. A rich program that makes it much more than just a flea market.

The car boot sale with free pitches

One of the major advantages of the Orgères-en-Beauce car boot sale is the free pitches for private exhibitors. This measure, rare in large events, attracts many residents from the commune and neighboring villages who wish to clear out their attics free of charge. Clothes, furniture, tableware, toys, tools, and various objects are piled up on the stalls for the pleasure of bargain hunters. The diversity of items offered guarantees unexpected discoveries at low prices.

The craft fair, showcase of local know-how

Alongside the car boot sale, the craft fair hosts local artisans and creators who exhibit and sell their productions. It's an opportunity to discover traditional and contemporary skills, meet passionate artisans, and acquire original local creations. The exhibition-sale by the leisure club complements this craft offering by presenting the club members' creations throughout the year.

Exhibitions of vintage and military vehicles

Another main attraction of the day, the exhibition of military vehicles and vintage tractors delights mechanics and history enthusiasts. These carefully restored and preserved vehicles bear witness to a rich industrial and agricultural past, and arouse the curiosity of young and old alike. Passionate owners are often present to share their knowledge and tell the story of their machines.

Funfair and stage shows

For families with children, the funfair offers its share of thrills and entertainment. On stage, stage shows follow one another throughout the day: traveling cabaret shows, musical performances, and all sorts of entertainment punctuate the day in a festive and relaxed atmosphere. Refreshments and catering are available on site for a complete day in Orgères-en-Beauce.
