Car Boot Sale of the Lavardac Festivals

The car boot sale at the heart of the Lavardac festivals

Each summer, from August 13th to 16th, Lavardac celebrates its major local festivals. Among the many events during these four days of festivities, the car boot sale on the Allée des Alliés is one of the most popular highlights. Dozens of private sellers set up their stalls to offer visitors clothes, toys, books, crockery, and objects of all kinds in a festive and friendly atmosphere.

Four days of celebration around the Baïse

The Lavardac festivals are a major summer event in Lot-et-Garonne. Over the four days, the town comes alive with a parade of flower floats, a concert followed by fireworks at 10:30 PM on the Baïse from the Lavardac mill, a popular ball in the open air, and numerous activities for young and old. The car boot sale on the Allée des Alliés naturally fits into this festive program, attracting both locals and passing tourists.

The Allée des Alliés is one of the most pleasant streets in Lavardac. Lined with century-old trees, it offers welcome shade for exhibitors and visitors strolling between the stalls in the heart of the Gascon summer. Its length allows for many exhibitors to be accommodated in comfortable conditions, with easy access from the town center and surrounding car parks.
