Faycelles Semi-Night Car Boot Sale

The Faycelles Semi-Night Car Boot Sale, an Original Concept Under the Stars

Faycelles (46100) is a village in the Lot department, located near Figeac, on the heights overlooking the Célé valley. This rural village in the Ségala region of the Lot organizes its car boot sale with a semi-night format, held in the late afternoon and early evening: from approximately 4 PM to 10 PM. This unique feature in the Lot car boot sale scene attracts customers who enjoy treasure hunting once the day's heat has passed, in the golden light of late summer and the coolness of the early night hours.

Treasure Hunting from 4 PM to 10 PM, a Unique Experience

The Faycelles semi-night car boot sale offers a different treasure hunting experience from the usual morning sales. Private sellers, setting up in the mid-afternoon, offer their goods — clothing, toys, books, dishes, tools, various objects — in an atmosphere that evolves over the hours. In the early evening, as the sun begins to set over the Ségala hills, the car boot sale takes on a different, more intimate and peaceful hue. Food is available on site, allowing the visit to be extended into a true summer evening.

Faycelles, Between Figeac and the Célé Valley

Faycelles is located in the direct orbit of Figeac, one of the most charming towns in the Lot, with its preserved medieval streets and the Champollion Museum, dedicated to hieroglyphs and writing. The village is also close to the Célé valley, a river with crystal-clear waters flowing through spectacular limestone gorges between Figeac and the Lot valley. For visitors to the car boot sale, the evening can be extended with a stroll through the streets of Figeac, just a few kilometers away.

A Summer Tradition in Faycelles

The Faycelles semi-night car boot sale has become a summer tradition in the village. It has been organized notably at the Equestrian Center, with catering on site. The organization relies on local volunteers who contribute to maintaining an active life in this village, offering an original event distinguished by its staggered hours, adapted to the beautiful summer evenings in the Lot.
