The Plan d'eau du Chêne: An Ideal Leisure Site

The Plan d'eau du Chêne is one of the most popular leisure sites in Saint-Julien-de-Concelles and surrounding areas. Supervised swimming, fishing, pedal boating, picnics on the banks: this body of water is the commune's summer green lung. Its location on the banks of the Loire, in a preserved natural environment, gives it a particular appeal. Holding the car boot sale on this site allows visitors to combine treasure hunting with a walk along the water.

Around 200 Exhibitors for a Varied Offer

With around a hundred exhibitors, the Saint-Julien-de-Concelles car boot sale offers a representative selection of local second-hand goods. Clothing for the whole family, furniture, tableware, books, toys, tools, records, and trinkets make up the usual offerings at these summer markets. The exhibitors, mainly individuals from neighboring Val de Loire communes, offer items from their homes and attics at attractive prices.

Conditions for Exhibitors

Pitches are offered at a price of €15 for 3.5x5m. This comfortable rectangular format, in an outdoor setting, allows for easy setup and good visibility of items. Registration must be completed before the event date. The location by the water means setting up on grass, in the bucolic and relaxed atmosphere of a summer car boot sale.
