The Craponne Autumn Fair

The Craponne Autumn Fair is an annual event embedded in the local life of this western Lyon commune. Every October, the fair combines a car boot sale and brocante for a day of browsing and discovery. Private sellers and exhibitors from neighbouring communes offer clothing, toys, books, ornaments, crockery, tools and small pieces of furniture. The fair is also often accompanied by entertainment and local producers.
