Car boot sale of the Lectoure Local Festival

The car boot sale of the Lectoure local festival

As part of its local festival, the town of Lectoure is organizing a car boot sale that takes over the streets and squares of the city. From 8 am to 6 pm, private sellers set up their stalls in the historic center of this perched city, offering bargain hunters and strollers a day of flea market in an exceptional heritage setting.

A car boot sale in the heart of a historic city

Lectoure is one of the most beautiful towns in the Gers, and its historic center offers an incomparable setting for a car boot sale. Stalls are set up along the cobbled streets, in the shaded squares, and around the Saint-Gervais Cathedral. Clothing, toys, books, crockery, trinkets, furniture, and various objects are displayed in a festive and popular atmosphere, enhanced by the local festival's entertainment.

Lectoure, jewel of Lomagne Gersoise

Lectoure (32700) is a Lomagne city of about 3,500 inhabitants, perched on a rocky spur overlooking the Gers valley. Former capital of the Counts of Armagnac, the city preserves exceptional heritage: a Gothic cathedral, ramparts, the Executioner's Tower, an archaeological museum rich in Gallo-Roman taurobolic altars, thermal baths, and private mansions. Lectoure is also known for its tradition of pastel blue, this plant-based dye that made the region's fortune in the Middle Ages.

The local festival, a highlight of Lectoure life

The Lectoure local festival is a highlight of the city's life, combining musical entertainment, street performances, popular meals, and, of course, a car boot sale. It is an opportunity for the people of Lectoure and visitors to come together in a festive and friendly atmosphere, in the majestic setting of this historic city.

A spring event from 8 am to 6 pm

Organized in early May, the car boot sale takes advantage of the Lomagne spring and the first Gascon warmth. The opening hours from 8 am to 6 pm allow early birds to get the best deals right from the start, and afternoon strollers to enjoy the local festival's entertainment while browsing the flea market stalls.
