Pont-de-Metz Flea Market

A traditional flea market at Amiens gates

The Pont-de-Metz Flea Market is one of the most awaited bargain hunting events in Amiens' western suburb. This town of about 2,600 inhabitants, bordering the Somme prefecture, organizes its annual rendezvous each spring. With an average of 200 exhibitors across several streets, it's a fine event attracting bargain hunters from Amiens, Somme and neighbouring departments.

A bargain hunting route in the town centre

The event takes over several emblematic streets: rue du Pont, rue de l'Eau, place René Aviez and surrounding streets. Exhibitors — mostly private — offer a typical Picardy flea market display: tableware, porcelain, family clothes, toys, books, comics, vinyl records, old tools, small furniture, lamps and trinkets.

Pont-de-Metz, Amiens metropolitan area

Pont-de-Metz is fully part of the Amiens metropolitan area, directly linked by rue du Pont. Its name evokes an ancient bridge on the Selle. Its proximity to Amiens (less than 10 minutes by car) makes it an easy stop for metropolis bargain hunters.

Arrive early for the best pieces. Park in village streets. Coming by bike from Amiens is a nice option in good weather. Bring small cash. Catering on site allows a friendly lunch break.
