Grand Déballage d'Emmaüs à Réaup-Lisse

The Grand Déballage of Emmaüs in Réaup-Lisse

Every summer, the Emmaüs 47 community invites its loyal bargain hunters and all lovers of good deals to the grand déballage of Réaup-Lisse (47170). Located about ten kilometers from Nérac towards Mézin, this annual event is one of the highlights of the solidarity activities in Lot-et-Garonne.

A Day of Solidarity and Conviviality

The Emmaüs concept is based on collecting, sorting, and recirculating second-hand items. During the grand déballage, about fifty exhibitors offer all these finds: clothing, tableware, books, records, furniture, tools, toys, trinkets, and various items at solidarity prices. Entry is free for all visitors, in the spirit of sharing that drives the Emmaüs movement.

Entertainment and Catering on Site

Beyond the sales stands, the grand déballage of Réaup-Lisse is a true popular festival. A refreshment bar and catering service welcome visitors throughout the day. Children's games and entertainment punctuate the day, including sometimes an introduction to archery. This festive dimension makes the event a appreciated meeting point for the entire Albret region.

Emmaüs 47 and its Action

Emmaüs 47 is the Emmaüs community of Lot-et-Garonne, located in the commune of Réaup-Lisse. Founded in the spirit of abbé Pierre, it welcomes companions in precarious situations who find in the work of collection and resale a living environment, a rewarding activity, and a path to dignity. The proceeds from sales finance the community's operations and help people in difficulty. Donating items to Emmaüs directly contributes to this chain of solidarity.

Réaup-Lisse, Between Albret and Armagnac

Réaup-Lisse (47170) is a rural commune in Lot-et-Garonne, nestled between the hills of Albret and the forests of the Landes de Gascogne. Its green setting, pine woods, and meadows bordered by streams make it a soothing natural setting. The grand déballage is fully integrated into this rustic and welcoming atmosphere, which contrasts with the hustle and bustle of large urban markets.
