Spring Car Boot Sale of Tornac

The Spring Car Boot Sale in Tornac

Each spring, the Foyer Rural de la Région de Tornac organizes its annual car boot sale in the place de la mairie in Tornac. This festive event, rooted in the tradition of village festivals in the Gard Cévenol region, offers more than just a flea market: it's a true village festival with activities for all ages.

The program includes:

• Stalls from individuals offering their second-hand items
• A game of egg pétanque, fun and friendly
• A candy balloon release for children
• An escape game for fans of team games
• A refreshment stand and light catering on site

The atmosphere is family-friendly and festive, in the spirit of small-town car boot sales where people come as much for the atmosphere as for the bargains.

The Foyer Rural de la Région de Tornac is the organizing association for this event. The Foyers Ruraux are cultural and social associations established in rural communities, working to liven up local life, offer activities to residents, and maintain a vibrant social fabric in the villages.

To participate as an exhibitor, pitches are available at a price of €5 for 4 m², accessible to all individuals wishing to clear out their attics. Reservations can be made by calling 07 71 88 36 44.

Tornac, a Cévenol village in the heart of the Pays d'Anduze

Tornac is a commune in the Gard region with about 700 inhabitants, nestled in the Cévennes hills between Anduze and Saint-Hippolyte-du-Fort. This preserved village benefits from an exceptional natural setting, with its holm oaks, chestnut trees, and typical landscapes of the Cévennes foothills.

Located a few kilometers from Anduze, the "gateway to the Cévennes," Tornac attracts visitors eager to discover this region with its strong cultural and natural identity. The Spring Car Boot Sale is a great opportunity to explore this village and its heritage while enjoying a friendly market.

A gathering focused on conviviality

What sets the Spring Car Boot Sale of Tornac apart from other similar events is the attention paid to activities and hospitality. The egg pétanque, which leads to memorable and often hilarious games, the candy balloon release that delights children, and the escape game that stimulates minds: all these activities transform a simple car boot sale into a true village festival.
