Flea market and Car boot sale of the Wine Festival of Chalonnes-sur-Loire

Flea Market and Car Boot Sale of the Wine Festival in Chalonnes-sur-Loire

In May, Chalonnes-sur-Loire (49290) hosts its Wine Festival, a festive event celebrating the wines of Anjou produced on the surrounding hillsides. Within this festive setting, UPGV organizes a flea market and car boot sale that perfectly complements the oenological program.

This original combination of a flea market and wine festival is characteristic of Anjou events, where conviviality is paramount. Exhibitors set up near tasting booths and entertainment, creating a rustic festival atmosphere where wine lovers, bargain hunters, and strollers mingle.

The stalls offer the classics of a car boot sale: clothing and fashion accessories, books and records, toys and games, tableware and table settings, furniture and decoration, trinkets and curiosities. The presence of the wine context sometimes leads to the sale of items related to cellars and viticulture, highly appreciated by enthusiasts.

The Wine Festival of Chalonnes and Anjou Wines

The Wine Festival of Chalonnes-sur-Loire celebrates the appellations of Coteaux du Layon, Coteaux de l'Aubance, and the red and rosé wines of Anjou. Chalonnes, at the confluence of the Loire and Layon rivers, is a natural crossroads of the Anjou vineyard. The festival brings together local winemakers, restaurateurs, and festival-goers for several days of tasting discoveries and cultural entertainment, of which the UPGV flea market is a appreciated element.
