Great Grand Parquet Flea Market

The Great Grand Parquet Flea Market: the 14 July flea market in Fontainebleau

Every 14 July, the Grand Parquet Equestrian Stadium in Fontainebleau (77300) hosts one of Seine-et-Marne's largest flea markets. This event, now a must on the regional calendar, brings together more than 250 exhibitors, both private individuals and professionals, on the vast equestrian site on the edge of the Fontainebleau forest, on Route d'Orléans. In 2026, the flea market is held on Tuesday 14 July 2026, a public holiday, from 8 AM to 6 PM, with free entry.

An exceptional setting: the Grand Parquet

The Grand Parquet of Fontainebleau is a major venue for French and international equestrian sports. This vast infrastructure, designed to host the largest equestrian competitions, offers an enormous and perfectly laid-out space for mass events. Plenty of parking, wide aisles, restrooms, refreshments, and food service: everything is designed for the comfort of visitors and exhibitors. The site, on the edge of the Fontainebleau forest, also benefits from an exceptional natural environment that makes it pleasant even in the height of summer heat.

More than 250 exhibitors, a very varied offering

Unlike the professional flea markets at Place de l'Aigle Noir, the Great Grand Parquet Flea Market is open to both private individuals and professionals. This mix is what makes the event so rich: you'll find family car boot sales (toys, clothes, books, dishware) alongside stalls from established dealers offering furniture, paintings, porcelain, and collectibles. Some editions gather up to 600 exhibitors according to the organizers, truly making it one of the largest events of its kind in southern Île-de-France.

A family day out for Bastille Day

14 July is an ideal day for a family outing. The Great Flea Market offers much more than a simple market: it is a real popular celebration in the spirit of the national holiday. Between two stalls, you can enjoy the refreshments, the snack bar, the restrooms, and the nearby parking. Children will enjoy hunting for old toys and games, while adults can find furniture, decor, or rare pieces. After the flea market, why not head to the center of Fontainebleau for the evening festivities, fireworks, and popular ball.

For exhibitors: bookings open

Exhibitors, both private and professional, must book their pitch in advance. Tables are mandatory, and no food professionals are accepted, as catering is handled by the organization. Information and reservations are made directly with the organizers through specialized websites (vide-greniers.org, brocabrac, etc.).
