Great May Brocante of L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue

Europe's largest brocante city

L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue ranks alongside London and Saint-Ouen among the top antique markets in Europe. The town permanently hosts over 300 dealers spread across a dozen antique villages, and attracts hunters from around the world, particularly during the Easter and 15 August international fairs. Between these peaks, the May brocante stands out as a more intimate yet high-quality gathering, perfect for relaxed browsing.

A weekend brocante through the streets
