Car boot sale of Laymont

The Laymont Car Boot Sale

Every year in April, the small village of Laymont organizes its annual car boot sale, from 9 am to 5 pm. This friendly event brings together private sellers and bargain hunters in an authentic rural setting, in the heart of the Gers countryside. The prices are accessible: €2 per linear meter or €4 per table, two options that adapt to the needs of each seller.

Two options for sellers

The peculiarity of the Laymont car boot sale lies in its dual pricing. Sellers can choose between a pitch per linear meter (€2/lm), ideal for large stalls with many items to display, or a table for €4, perfect for those who want to clear out a cellar or attic without investing in a large space. This flexibility encourages participation from the largest number of people and diversifies the offerings to visitors.

The spirit of village car boot sales

Laymont perfectly embodies the spirit of village car boot sales that make the charm of rural Gers. Here, there are no professional stalls or new merchandise: the stalls offer everyday items directly from the attics and cellars of private individuals. Clothes, trinkets, old crockery, children's toys, garden tools, books, and curiosities are displayed for bargain hunters in a relaxed, family atmosphere.

Laymont, a village in the Gers countryside

Laymont is a small rural commune in the Gers, nestled in the typical hilly landscape of Gascony. This discreet village retains a preserved rural way of life, between cereal fields, meadows, and oak groves. Community life is active, and events like the car boot sale help maintain social ties in these small communities where everyone knows each other.

A day of treasure hunting in the open air

From 9 am to 5 pm, the Laymont car boot sale offers a full day of outdoor treasure hunting. Visitors enjoy the spring weather to stroll between the stalls, chat with sellers, and find a good deal. Admission is free, and parking is easy in this human-sized village. An unpretentious but authentic event, reflecting Gersois life.
