Mareuil-sur-Lay August Flea Market

The Mareuil-sur-Lay-Dissais August flea market

In addition to the spring flea market, Mareuil-sur-Lay-Dissais holds a summer event on Saturday 1 August 2026. The peak-season date draws locals and holidaymakers taking a break between beach days.

Mostly private vendors set up from dawn in the village or a dedicated spot. Usual offer: clothes, toys, tableware, bibelots, books, small furniture. Relaxed summery vibe with refreshments.

• Tableware, bibelots, glass
• Books, comics, DVDs
• Small furniture, decor
• Holiday and summer items

A peak-season date

1 August makes strategic sense: many holidaymakers between coast and inland looking for something to do beyond the beach. The flea market becomes a family and tourist attraction as well as a local rendezvous.

Extending the visit

Well placed: Vendée coast (Les Sables-d'Olonne, La Tranche-sur-Mer) 30-40 min, Marais poitevin to the south, Luçon cathedral nearby, Fiefs Vendéens estates.
