Festival Committee Flea Market in Saint-Saturnin-lès-Avignon

The Festival Committee's spring flea market

On Sunday 26 April 2026, Saint-Saturnin-lès-Avignon's Festival Committee runs its spring flea market, a regular fixture in the local calendar. This follows the core mission of Provençal Festival Committees: animating community life, gathering residents for festive moments, raising funds for the year's major events (votive festival, Bastille Day, fireworks, cultural events).

Festival Committees are among Provence's most emblematic associative structures — present in almost every village, pillars of local life, often for decades. Their spring flea market draws families, thrifters and curious people from Saint-Saturnin, neighbouring communes and Avignon's outskirts.

What to find

• Varied private-seller bric-à-brac
• Adults' and kids' clothes, linens
• Toys, games, books, comics
• Tableware, glassware, dinnerware
• Décor, small furniture, lamps
• Vintage and Provençal curios
• Vinyl, CDs, DVDs

Saint-Saturnin-lès-Avignon, a traditional commune

About 5,500 residents east of Avignon, in the prefecture's urban area. Named for Saint Saturnin, regional evangeliser. Preserved village feel despite growth: central church, fountains, old streets. Particularly dense associative life with multiple flea markets year-round by the Amicale Laïque, Festival Committee, schools and sports associations — a regular destination for southern Vaucluse hunters.

A village-serving event

Profits fund the Committee's yearly festivities: 13 July fireworks, aubade for the votive festival, Christmas events, elders' meals. The classic Provençal committee model — solidarity and volunteering.
