Car boot sale FC Maurin Lattes

Hunt from dawn on Place du Mail in Maurin

FC Maurin, the football club of the Maurin district in Lattes, organizes its car boot sale every year on Place du Mail. From 6 am, the earliest treasure hunters scour the aisles to spot the best deals before the crowds. Between 50 and 100 exhibitors set up their stalls until 3 pm, offering a diverse inventory: clothes, toys, books, crockery, small furniture, garden tools, vinyl records, and curiosities of all kinds. The atmosphere is that of a neighborhood car boot sale, warm and unpretentious, with the club's refreshment stand to refuel.

Maurin, a village within the city by the Lez

Maurin is a district of Lattes that has retained its village spirit despite the urbanization of the Montpellier metropolitan area. Place du Mail, the commercial heart of the district, is lined with plane trees and café terraces that give it a Provençal charm. The Lez river flows nearby, offering shaded walks after the hunt. The FC Maurin car boot sale contributes to the vibrancy of this dynamic district, where sports and cultural associations are the ferment of social life.

FC Maurin, a player in social connection through sport
