Car boot sale at the Hippodrome — Jullianges

The Jullianges racecourse car boot sale

Jullianges is a commune in Haute-Loire in the Val d'Arzon, known for its racecourse, one of the last active racecourses in the department. The Société Hippique de la Haute-Loire, which manages this remarkable equestrian site, organizes a car boot sale every first Sunday of September, taking advantage of the vast spaces of the racecourse to welcome exhibitors and visitors in an unusual and picturesque setting.

A unique equestrian setting for bargain hunting

The Jullianges racecourse, located at 435 route de l'Hippodrome, offers an exceptional setting for organizing a car boot sale. The well-maintained lawns, spacious aisles, and equestrian buildings form an original backdrop that is a pleasant change from typical town center car boot sales. The available space allows exhibitors to set up comfortably and visitors to browse the stalls without constraint.

An attractive rate of €1 per meter

The Société Hippique de la Haute-Loire has opted for a very affordable exhibition rate: €1 per linear meter. This advantageous pricing encourages private participation and promotes a popular and diverse market. From 7 am, exhibitors set up in their allocated spaces to welcome the first early morning visitors, often the most eager to find bargains.

Free and secure parking for visitors

The racecourse has a large, free, and secure indoor parking area reserved for visitors. This facility, usually dedicated to racegoers, is a significant asset for the car boot sale, avoiding the parking problems often encountered at town center events.

Jullianges and its racecourse: an equestrian heritage to preserve

The Jullianges racecourse is more than just a sports venue; it is a testament to Haute-Loire's equestrian heritage. The Société Hippique de la Haute-Loire organizes races throughout the season and maintains this historic site. The organization of the car boot sale helps to keep this space alive outside of racing periods and to make it known to the general public.
