Car boot sale of the Montfort-en-Chalosse Festivals

The car boot sale of the Montfort-en-Chalosse festivals

Each year at the end of July, Montfort-en-Chalosse lives to the rhythm of its patronal festivals, a major event that enlivens the town for four days. It is in this festive setting that the traders' association Montfort mon Choix organizes its traditional car boot sale, on the Saturday of the festivals.

A car boot sale at the heart of the festival

The car boot sale of the Montfort festivals benefits from exceptional attendance linked to the patronal festivities. Visitors, who come for the festivals, take the opportunity to hunt for bargains among the stalls that take over the streets of the town center. The atmosphere is unique: bandas, entertainment, street food, and Landes good humor mingle with the pleasure of bargain hunting, creating an incomparable atmosphere.

The Montfort festivals, a popular event

The Montfort-en-Chalosse festivals traditionally take place from Friday to Monday, with a rich and varied program. The agricultural show highlights local breeders and producers, the bullfighting shows in the arena attract aficionados, the bandas liven up the streets, and the festive meals bring the population together. The Saturday car boot sale fits perfectly into this program, adding a touch of bargain hunting to the general excitement.

A panoramic village

Montfort-en-Chalosse, perched on its hill 15 km from Dax, offers an exceptional panorama of the Chalosse hills and the Pyrenees mountain range on a clear day. The steep streets and old houses of the town form a picturesque setting for the car boot sale, inviting visitors to stroll between flea market finds and spectacular viewpoints.
