Car boot sale Foyer Rural Saint-Gély-du-Fesc

The Foyer Rural's car boot sale at the Espace Chassary

Every year in September, the Foyer Rural of Saint-Gély-du-Fesc organizes its annual car boot sale at the Espace Chassary, the town's multi-purpose hall. Individuals — families, retirees, students — offer clothes, toys, books, trinkets, crockery, small furniture, garden equipment, and everyday objects. The back-to-school period in September is an ideal time for this type of event, with families taking advantage of the end of summer to declutter before autumn.

Saint-Gély-du-Fesc, the garrigue at the gates of Montpellier

Saint-Gély-du-Fesc is a town of over 10,000 inhabitants located north of Montpellier, in the hills of the garrigue. A former wine-growing village, Saint-Gély has become a sought-after residential town for its privileged living environment amidst pines, holm oaks, and terraces. The Espace Chassary, the town's cultural and festive facility, hosts shows, exhibitions, and associative events throughout the year. Its indoor and outdoor space provides a suitable setting for the car boot sale.
