The Grand Car Boot Sale of Tokoro

Organized by the EDB Gap association, the Grand Car Boot Sale of Tokoro is a charity event that brings together around 200 exhibitors on the Boulevard d'Orient, in the Tokoro business park in Gap.

Gap, prefecture of Hautes-Alpes

Gap, prefecture of Hautes-Alpes, is the most populous city in the department with over 40,000 inhabitants. Located at an altitude of 735 meters, at the crossroads of the Col Bayard, Col de la Croix-Haute, and Sisteron routes, the city is the main commercial and administrative hub of the Southern Alps. The Tokoro business park, on the northern outskirts of the city, offers a vast space suitable for large-scale events.

A large-scale charity car boot sale

With its 200 exhibitors, the Tokoro car boot sale is one of the largest in the department. Its charitable nature gives it a solidarity dimension appreciated by the inhabitants. Visitors find a wide choice of second-hand items while contributing to the support of sick children. Refreshments and food are available on site.

The Hautes-Alpes, land of flea markets and car boot sales

The Hautes-Alpes department, the least populated in metropolitan France, compensates for its low density with a particularly dynamic associative life. From March to October, car boot sales and flea markets punctuate the life of Alpine villages, offering as many opportunities to hunt for treasures as to get together with neighbors.
