Car boot sale of Trizac

A car boot sale in the medieval village of Trizac

Every summer, the streets of the village and the Place de la Halle in Trizac (15400) host a car boot sale organized by the association Génération Sport Retraite Sportive. The event takes place from 8 am to 6 pm, with exhibitors set up both indoors and outdoors, offering a varied selection of second-hand items: trinkets, crockery, clothes, toys, books, and collectibles.

Trizac, an high-altitude village in Cantal

Trizac is an high-altitude commune located on the plateau separating the valleys of the Sumène and the Maronne, between Mauriac and Puy Mary. This village, whose name evokes an old medieval fief, preserves a beautiful rural heritage with its volcanic stone houses, its Romanesque church, and its old market hall. The altitude and the landscape of moors and meadows give Trizac an authentic mountain character.

La Retraite Sportive, an associative driving force

The association Génération Sport Retraite Sportive is an important player in local life in Trizac. By organizing this annual car boot sale, it contributes to the summer entertainment of this rural high-altitude commune and creates a moment of conviviality between permanent residents, second-home owners, and hikers passing through on the trails of Cantal.

Between Mauriac and Puy Mary

Trizac's location, halfway between Mauriac and the foothills of Puy Mary, makes it a stopping point for tourists and hikers who crisscross Cantal in the summer. The car boot sale benefits from this footfall to attract a varied audience, eager to discover the streets of this high-altitude village while browsing the items offered by the exhibitors.
