Car boot sales of May 1st Comité des Fêtes Abraysien — Saint-Jean-de-Braye

Review of the May 1st, 2025 car boot sale in Saint-Jean-de-Braye

On May 1st, 2025, the Comité des Fêtes Abraysien organized its grand annual car boot sale in the Vieux Bourg of Saint-Jean-de-Braye, which confirms each year its status as one of the largest second-hand markets in the Loiret. 300 exhibitors set up in the streets of the town's historic district, from 6 am to 6 pm, for a marathon day of outdoor car boot sale.

The diversity and quantity of offerings were present: clothing of all styles, books, toys, crockery, small furniture, tools, electronic equipment, and countless curiosities delighted visitors, who came in large numbers from the morning. Musical entertainment and children's activities at the Courtil Loison contributed to the festive atmosphere of the day, while the food provided by the volunteers of the Comité des Fêtes allowed exhibitors and visitors to regain strength throughout the day. Traffic restrictions were in place from the day before to facilitate exhibitor setup and visitor safety.
