Car boot sale of July 14th in La Bastide-Puylaurent

Car boot sale of July 14th in La Bastide-Puylaurent

Every year on July 14th, the Étoile Pétanque Bastidoise organizes its car boot sale in La Bastide-Puylaurent (48250), route de Mende. This event is part of the National Day festivities and marks the start of the peak summer season in this Lozère village.

The price is affordable: €1 per 3 meters of pitch, which encourages participation from many private sellers. This event is completely separate from the large flea market on August 15th in La Bastide-Puylaurent, which attracts many professionals each year.

La Bastide-Puylaurent is a village crossed by the Allier river, on the borders of Lozère, Ardèche, and Haute-Loire. This mountain village, located between the Cévennes and the Massif du Tanargue, is a popular holiday destination for hiking and fishing. It is particularly known as a former crossroads of historic communication routes.

The Étoile Pétanque Bastidoise

The Étoile Pétanque Bastidoise is the village's pétanque association. By organizing this July 14th car boot sale, it diversifies its associative commitment and contributes to the summer entertainment of the village. The combination of pétanque and car boot sale is a well-established associative tradition in Lozère villages.
