CCF Sainte-Suzanne Car Boot Sale

The CCF Car Boot Sale, a highlight of associative life in Sainte-Suzanne

Sainte-Suzanne is a commune in the Doubs region with 1,400 inhabitants, part of the Montbéliard agglomeration, located in the Pays de Montbéliard between Montbéliard and Héricourt. Despite its modest size, the commune benefits from active associative life, with the CCF — Comité de Culture et de Fêtes, or local Festival Committee — being one of the main organizers. Among the regular events organized by this association, the annual September car boot sale holds a special place in the local calendar.

The event takes place at the Salle Polyvalente (Multipurpose Hall) of Sainte-Suzanne, located at 90 rue de Besançon, a community facility that is accessible and well-known to residents. This spacious, covered hall provides an ideal setting for a car boot sale, regardless of the weather in September, which can sometimes be uncertain in Franche-Comté. Sellers have well-organized pitches, and visitors can move around comfortably between the stalls.

A Car Boot Sale Supporting Local Associative Life

The CCF of Sainte-Suzanne uses the organization of this car boot sale to generate some of the resources needed for its year-round activities. Pitch fees paid by sellers and ancillary revenues (food, drinks) allow the association to finance its projects and to animate the cultural and social life of the commune. By participating—whether as a seller or a visitor—everyone directly contributes to the associative vitality of Sainte-Suzanne.

The 2026 edition, scheduled for September 19th, continues the tradition of an event that has successfully retained sellers and bargain hunters from the Montbéliard area over the years. Its timing in mid-September, after the start of the school year but before the first autumn rains, makes it an ideal time for a family leisure outing.

The Salle Polyvalente of Sainte-Suzanne, a Community Hub

The multipurpose hall at 90 rue de Besançon is an important community space for the residents of Sainte-Suzanne. Hosting sports, cultural, and associative events, it symbolizes the commune's commitment to its collective facilities. The CCF's car boot sale finds a warm and practical setting here every September, just a short walk from the town center and easily accessible from neighboring communes in the Montbéliard agglomeration.
