Summer town center flea market and car boot sale

The summer town center flea market and car boot sale of Châtillon-sur-Loire

Each year, on August 17th, the town center of Châtillon-sur-Loire (45360) transforms into a large summer treasure market. Organized by the ECLAT association, this event takes over Place du Champ de Foire, Place Clémenceau, and Rue des Prés with around 150 exhibitors, from 7 am to 6 pm.

A car boot sale in the heart of the Loire summer

August 17th is an ideal date for this type of event: holidaymakers passing through the banks of the Loire, families on vacation, and residents of Châtillon-sur-Loire and its surroundings gather for a long day of summer treasure hunting. The town center offers a lively and pleasant setting, with café terraces and local shops in the background.

Place du Champ de Foire, Place Clémenceau, Rue des Prés: three areas for treasure hunting

The ECLAT summer car boot sale takes over three complementary areas of the town center. Place du Champ de Foire, vast and well-shaded, hosts the larger stalls. Place Clémenceau and Rue des Prés complete the route with their unique atmospheres. Visitors can thus wander from one area to another, increasing their chances of making great finds.

Between coolness and heat: a summer treasure hunting day

Despite the summer heat, the ECLAT summer car boot sale attracts a large and enthusiastic crowd each year. Sellers and buyers adapt to the temperatures with light clothing, parasols, and cold drinks provided by the association's refreshment stand. The summer atmosphere of Châtillon-sur-Loire, with the Loire nearby, adds a special charm to this treasure hunting day.

ECLAT: a committed cultural association

The ECLAT association of Châtillon-sur-Loire organizes this summer car boot sale as part of its mission to promote culture and leisure for all ages. With around 150 exhibitors and hundreds of visitors, it is one of the largest treasure hunting events of the summer in the Terres de Loire et Canaux region.
