Covered Car Boot Sale at the Segré Exhibition Centre

Covered Car Boot Sale at the Segré Exhibition Centre

The Parc des Expositions de Segré hosts a covered car boot sale, offering a popular alternative to the usual outdoor car boot sales. This format allows exhibitors and visitors to enjoy a day of treasure hunting in an indoor space, protected from the vagaries of the weather — rain, wind, or harsh sun — which can complicate outdoor events.

The setting of the Parc des Expositions offers a quality space, well-served and easily accessible in the heart of Segré-en-Anjou Bleu (49500). Private exhibitors set up their stalls in the organized aisles of the exhibition halls, offering all sorts of items: furniture and antique objects, tableware and table arts, clothing and accessories, books, records, and audiovisual media, toys and games, trinkets and curiosities.

The covered format attracts more exhibitors who want to protect their items and allows visitors to browse at their leisure, regardless of the weather conditions. This feature makes the Segré covered car boot sale one of the most popular events in northern Maine-et-Loire outside of the summer season.

Segré-en-Anjou Bleu, capital of Haut-Anjou

Segré-en-Anjou Bleu (49500) is the new municipality created from the merger of Segré, Le Bourg-d'Iré, Châtelais, Carbay, and several other communes in Haut-Anjou. Segré is historically the sub-prefecture of Maine-et-Loire and the central town of the Pays du Haut-Anjou Segréen, a rural territory in the north of the department.

The town is crossed by the Oudon river, a tributary of the Mayenne, and is surrounded by hedgerows and forests. Haut-Anjou is a transitional territory between the Angevin bocage to the south and the Norman bocage to the north, with its landscapes of meadows, forests, and small rivers. Segré benefits from an interesting historical heritage with its 19th-century bourgeois houses, testifying to its past as a mining town (iron ore).
