L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue Sunday Brocante Market

The brocante market that never sleeps

Every Sunday, from 9 am to 6 pm, L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue vibrates to the rhythm of its permanent brocante market. On Avenue des 4 Otages, professional antique dealers set up their stands under the plane trees, beside the canals where the 14 listed water wheels turn.

Continuous professional dealers

Unlike a flea market, this brocante market hosts almost exclusively professionals: established antique dealers, specialist brocanteurs and gallery owners. The range is broad: Provençal furniture, 17th-19th century European furniture, 20th-century design, paintings, engravings, sculptures, bronzes, silverware, porcelain and faience, antique lighting, clocks, period jewellery, antique books and curiosities.

At the heart of the Comtadine Venice

L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue is Europe's third art and antiques market hub, just behind London and Saint-Ouen. The town counts over 250 permanent antique dealers across fifteen antique villages. The Sunday market complements this permanent offer.

A dreamlike setting along the water

Avenue des 4 Otages runs along the branches of the Sorgue. The stands line up under century-old plane trees, steps from the slowly turning water wheels.

An international audience

The Sunday crowd mixes Provence residents, Vaucluse and Comtat enthusiasts, Paris collectors and foreign tourists (British, Dutch, Belgian, Italian, American).
