Car boot sale, Floralie and Sports Fair of Gimont

Car boot sale, Floralie and Sports Fair in Gimont

The association Gimont Festiv' offers an original event at the Halle au Gras in Gimont: a car boot sale, a floralie, and a sports fair all in one day. This unique concept in the Gers allows it to reach a varied audience by combining three complementary universes under one roof.

The Halle au Gras, an emblematic venue

The Halle au Gras in Gimont, located on Boulevard du Nord, is an emblematic venue of this Gascon bastide. Usually dedicated to the fat market and local producers, it transforms for a day into a diversified sales space. Car boot sale exhibitors rub shoulders with nurserymen and horticulturists from the floralie and stands of second-hand sports equipment from the sports fair.

Three events in one

The car boot sale section brings together individuals offering clothes, toys, books, and various objects. The floralie showcases seasonal plants, flowers, and shrubs, ideal for preparing gardens for spring. The sports fair allows families to find second-hand sports equipment at low prices: bicycles, rackets, balls, sports shoes, hiking gear, and many other items.

Gimont, the foie gras bastide

Gimont is a Gascon bastide of about 3,000 inhabitants, famous throughout the Southwest for its foie gras market, one of the most reputable in the region. Located between Auch and Toulouse, this dynamic town benefits from a rich associative life, of which Gimont Festiv' is one of the main driving forces. The association animates the bastide throughout the year with unifying events.
