About La Ballu Garage Sale
The La Ballu Garage Sale: A Day of Browsing by the Lake
Each summer, the Ballastière lake — affectionately known as 'La Ballu' by locals — hosts the annual garage sale of Saint-Martin-de-Sanzay. This family-friendly leisure site, lined with lawns and trees, offers an idyllic setting for a day of outdoor browsing. Exhibitors, mainly private sellers, display their attic treasures along shaded paths.
A Festive and Family-Friendly Garage Sale
The organisation is handled by the Saint-Martin-de-Sanzay festival committee. The on-site refreshment bar and catering allow visitors to spend the entire day by the water. Stall space costs just €1.50 per linear metre, a very affordable rate that attracts many exhibitors.
What You Can Find
The La Ballu garage sale is a classic: clothing of all sizes, toys, board games, crockery, small furniture, books, vinyl records and decorative objects. Prices are set by the private sellers themselves, ensuring gentle rates and great finds for early-morning visitors.
