Chevreuse Foire à tout (Spring)

A Village Institution at the Foot of the Castle

The Chevreuse foire à tout is one of the most anticipated events on the flea market calendar in the southern Yvelines. Held twice a year by the Chevreuse Comité des Fêtes, it sets up on the Chemin des Regains, an ideal countryside setting for the hundred or so exhibitors. The spring edition, traditionally scheduled for early May (Sunday, May 3, 2026), benefits from a particularly festive atmosphere with the return of fair weather.

Around 120 Exhibitors and a Joyful Mix

With about 120 exhibitors, the Chevreuse foire à tout reaches an ideal size: large enough to offer real variety, but small enough to keep the friendly atmosphere of a village flea market. Individuals, semi-professionals, and a few seasoned brocanteurs offer a typical mix: antique and vintage furniture, tableware, trinkets, books, records, old toys, postcards, vintage clothing, tools, household linen, decoration, and miscellaneous items. Prices are generally modest.

Chevreuse, Medieval Town of the Regional Natural Park

Chevreuse is a charming historic little town in the southern Yvelines, dominated by the impressive ruins of the Château de la Madeleine, which offer a magnificent panorama over the entire Yvette valley. An ancient medieval town, Chevreuse preserves a remarkable heritage: half-timbered houses, old washhouses, bridges, and picturesque alleys. The town is also the natural gateway to the Haute Vallée de Chevreuse Regional Natural Park.

Combining Bargain Hunting and Nature Getaway

Participating in the Chevreuse foire à tout is also an opportunity to discover or rediscover one of the most beautiful corners of Île-de-France. Visitors can extend their day with a visit to the Château de la Madeleine, a walk along the Yvette, or an excursion to the nearby abbeys of Port-Royal-des-Champs or Cernay.
