Car boot sale of the Association of Traders and Artisans — Vorey

The car boot sale of the Association of Traders and Artisans of Vorey

Vorey-sur-Arzon is a village of about 1,400 inhabitants nestled at the confluence of the Loire and the Arzon, about twenty kilometers northwest of Le Puy-en-Velay. Nicknamed "the little Nice" of Haute-Loire for its mild climate, this village of character is labeled Station Verte and offers direct access to the GR3 and GR40 hiking trails.

The Coulée Verte, natural setting for the car boot sale

It is in this privileged setting that the car boot sale organized by the Association of Traders and Artisans of Vorey takes place every May 8th. The Coulée Verte, a tree-lined promenade along the Arzon river, transforms for the occasion into a lively open-air market. The murmur of the water and the singing of birds accompany bargain hunters in their exploration of the stalls.

An event rooted in local life

The Association of Traders and Artisans of Vorey plays a driving role in revitalizing the economic and festive life of the village. This May 8th car boot sale is part of this initiative: it allows residents to clear out their attics, visitors to find great deals, and contributes to the liveliness of the town center during the public holiday weekend of May 8th.

Friendly atmosphere and entertainment for children

Beyond bargain hunting, the event offers free entertainment for children, making this day a true family celebration. Games and activities are planned so that the youngest can enjoy the day while adults explore the stands. You can find everything on the stalls: crockery and decorative items, clothing of all sizes, toys and board games, books and comics, tools and small equipment, trinkets and various curiosities.
