The unmissable summer chining meet in central Var
In the Var chining calendar, the grand August 15th flea market in Flassans-sur-Issole holds a special place. Neither the oldest nor the most prestigious, it has become one of the most popular thanks to its strategic calendar positioning - summer public holiday - and the meticulous organisation of Association COVAC.
The flea market generally spreads over the village centre and the Grands Prés car park, offering exhibitors generous space. The August 15 atmosphere is special: a mix of holidaymakers, year-round residents and tourists.
The August 15 flea market offers a concentrate of what summer chining can offer: summer clothes, beach toys, camping gear, holiday books, mismatched crockery, small garden furniture, decoration, vinyl records, comics, old postcards.
August 15 being also the Feast of the Assumption, the day traditionally fits into local festivities. Refreshments, food stalls, children's entertainment punctuate the flea market.
The Var summer is scorching: an early arrival - from 7am - is strongly advised. Bring caps, water, sunscreen. Professional chiners arrive from 5am.
