Car boot sale Saint-Sernin de Cannes in Condom

The car boot sale of the Saint-Sernin de Cannes district, Condom

Every early July, the Cannes district, a historic suburb of Condom, organizes its car boot sale around the Saint-Sernin church. From 8 am to 6:30 pm, the streets and squares of the district transform into a vast second-hand market in a remarkable heritage setting, a stone's throw from the Baïse and the Condom marina.

A neighborhood car boot sale in the heart of Condom

The Saint-Sernin car boot sale is a neighborhood event, enlivened by the residents of Cannes and local volunteers. Individual exhibitors set up their stalls in the streets and squares around the church, offering clothing, toys, books, old dishes, trinkets, furniture, and various items. The opening hours from 8 am to 6:30 pm offer a full day of treasure hunting, from the first morning finds to the end-of-day bargains.

The Saint-Sernin church and the Cannes district

The Saint-Sernin church is one of Condom's remarkable religious buildings, a testament to the history of the Cannes suburb. This district, whose name comes from the Latin "campus" (field), developed at the gates of the episcopal city of Condom. Its quiet, tree-lined streets, old houses, and proximity to the Baïse make it a particularly pleasant setting for a summer car boot sale.

Condom, sub-prefecture of the Gers and capital of Armagnac

Condom (32100) is the sub-prefecture of the Gers and the historic capital of Armagnac. The city preserves exceptional heritage: Saint-Pierre Cathedral, the Armagnac Museum, the Bishops' Chapel, half-timbered houses, and a river port on the Baïse. The Saint-Sernin car boot sale offers an opportunity to discover a lesser-known district of this Gascon city, far from the tourist crowds of the historic center.

A full day from 8 am to 6:30 pm

The exceptional opening hours of this car boot sale, from 8 am to 6:30 pm, make it one of the longest of the season in the Gers. Early birds can take advantage of the best deals right from the opening, while afternoon visitors can negotiate end-of-day prices. The refreshment stand and on-site catering allow you to spend the whole day in the Saint-Sernin district.
