Ligardes, between Condom and Lectoure

Ligardes is a rural commune in the Gers, located between Condom and Lectoure, two of the most remarkable towns in the department. This village in the Gers Ténarèze is nestled in a landscape of hills planted with vines and cereals, typical of this Armagnac region. The discreet heritage of Ligardes – its church, its Gascon farms – bears witness to a preserved rural area.

An Accessible Price for Everyone

At €2.50 per linear meter, the exhibitor fee for the Ligardes car boot sale remains very accessible and encourages private participation. This price, slightly higher than the Gers average (generally €2/linear meter), contributes to funding the activities of the Club les Blés Mûrs while remaining reasonable. Exhibitors offer the usual car boot sale items: clothing, crockery, trinkets, toys, tools, books, and attic finds.
