Lézignan-Corbières Car Boot Sale

The Annual Lézignan-Corbières Car Boot Sale

Every April, Lézignan-Corbières hosts its annual car boot sale, bringing together private sellers and flea market vendors in the streets and public spaces of the town. This spring event is highly anticipated by the residents of the town and the surrounding Corbières villages, who find it an opportunity to clear out their attics or find bargains.

Lézignan-Corbières, wine capital of the Corbières

Lézignan-Corbières (11200) is a town of about 11,000 inhabitants, considered the capital of the Corbières. Located halfway between Narbonne and Carcassonne, in the heart of the Corbières appellation, one of the largest AOCs in France, Lézignan is a town of wine trading and commerce. Its lively town center, its cooperative wineries, and its Museum of Vine and Wine make it a popular tourist destination for lovers of Occitan terroir.

A Car Boot Sale Open to All

The Lézignan-Corbières car boot sale is open to all individuals wishing to sell their second-hand items: clothing, toys, books, dishes, furniture, knick-knacks, tools, and anything else that can find a second life. Prices are freely set by the sellers, and negotiation is part of the fun of treasure hunting. Entry is free for visitors.

The atmosphere of Occitan car boot sales

As in all towns in the South, the Lézignan-Corbières car boot sale takes place in a warm and relaxed atmosphere, with a local population accustomed to the art of the market and conviviality. The people of the Corbières, often winegrowers or connected to the world of wine, bring a special flavor of terroir and authenticity to these events.
