20th edition of a village flea market with its famous gourmet lunch, in the heart of the Gâtinais
The Amponville Flea Market with its Gourmet Lunch celebrates its 20th edition in 2026. Organized every September by the municipality in this small village of southern Seine-et-Marne, the event combines bargain hunting, conviviality and gastronomy around a gourmet lunch that has become its signature. Vendors fill the village center for a festive day eagerly awaited by the residents of the Gâtinais français and visitors from across the Paris region.
In September 2026, Amponville celebrates the 20th edition of its annual flea market paired with its famous gourmet lunch. Two decades during which this event has become part of the village's festive heritage, becoming one of the main autumn gatherings for residents of Amponville and neighboring communes. Organized by the municipality, it perfectly embodies the spirit of village celebrations where everyone pitches in to offer visitors a memorable day.
What sets Amponville apart from other flea markets in Seine-et-Marne is this clever combination of bargain hunting and gastronomy. While vendors display clothes, toys, furniture, tableware, books, trinkets and all sorts of objects in the village center, a team prepares the gourmet lunch that delights hungry visitors every year. This friendly formula attracts a family audience that comes as much for the bargains as for a nice shared meal in a country atmosphere.
Amponville is a small rural commune in southern Seine-et-Marne, nestled in the Gâtinais français Regional Nature Park. Its agricultural landscapes, woods and typical hamlets make it a preserved territory, far from the bustle of the Paris region. The village has a few dozen houses, an old church and hiking trails that cross the countryside. This authentic setting gives the flea market its full flavor: a suspended day where one rediscovers the simple pleasures of rural markets.
Visitors browsing the stalls can make great finds: old furniture from attics, porcelain tableware, childhood toys, old books, vintage clothing, garden tools, decorative objects and various curiosities. Prices remain modest, faithful to the flea market spirit, and haggling is part of the game.
According to tradition, the event spans the entire weekend, with the flea market on Sunday and side activities the day before. The gourmet lunch, the event's true signature, is served at midday and showcases local products.
Arrive early to enjoy the best bargains. Bring cash for purchases and consider booking your spot for the gourmet lunch. Traffic can be dense in the village: use the designated parking areas at the entrance.
