Swap meet of the Comité d'Animation de Pont-l'Abbé

The CAP Swap Meet, a major event in Pays Bigouden

The Comité d'Animation de Pont-l'Abbé (CAP) organizes a large swap meet every year in the covered and outdoor parking lot of the E.Leclerc store in Pont-l'Abbé. This event has established itself as one of the must-attend flea market events in Pays Bigouden, attracting exhibitors and bargain hunters from all over Finistère.

A large-scale event in Pays Bigouden

With over 230 exhibitors and around 4,200 visitors recorded in recent editions, the CAP swap meet is a major event for the town of Pont-l'Abbé and the south of Finistère. The Leclerc parking lot, both covered and open-air, offers a spacious and practical setting, accessible to all.

The event is open to private individuals, professionals, and associations under the 1901 law, making it a rich and eclectic meeting point: furniture, clothing, toys, tableware, books, trinkets, household appliances, and collectibles are all found throughout the day.

A festive and friendly day

Beyond bargain hunting, the event offers full catering on site: merguez sausages, fries, sausages, sandwiches, kouign amann, crêpes, and a bar allow visitors to spend the entire day in a warm and typically Breton atmosphere. The refreshment stand and catering contribute to the festive atmosphere that has characterized this event since its inception.

Pont-l'Abbé and Pays Bigouden

Pont-l'Abbé is the capital of Pays Bigouden, a region in southern Finistère renowned for its Breton traditions, headdresses, and maritime culture. The town, crossed by the Pont-l'Abbé river, is an important local hub for the surrounding communes. Its covered market and shops make it a prime meeting place, which the CAP swap meet extends with a festive and community-oriented dimension.
