Glisy Réderia

A réderie on the doorstep of Amiens

Glisy has an unusual profile: a rural, village-like commune at its heart and by history, but integrated into the Amiens metropolitan area by its economy (industrial zone, airport) and proximity. Its annual réderie on Friday 8 May 2026, rue d'en Haut, benefits from this dual identity: easily reached from Amiens via the ring road, it still has the charm of an authentic Picard village. An ideal chance for Amiens residents to browse five minutes from home.

May 8th, Picard réderie day

As in many Somme villages, 8 May in Glisy means réderie. Making the most of the public holiday, sellers and dealers set up on rue d'en Haut, the commune's main artery. Most sellers are Glisy locals and neighbours from Boves, Cagny, Longueau and Camon, offering clothes, toys, books, tableware, small furniture, tools, bric-à-brac. A few professionals bring sought-after pieces.

Glisy, between village and airport zone

Glisy is an eastern Amiens suburb crossed by the ring road, close to Amiens-Métropole airport. Its territory includes a major activity zone (CETGlisy), but the historic village keeps its Picard character with its houses, Saint-Martin church and quiet lanes. This duality is the commune's charm.

A neighbourhood feel

The Glisy Réderia has a particular feel, between rural réderie and urban vide-grenier. Families from Amiens come for the 8 May bank holiday, village residents loyal to their annual event, regional collectors hunting bargains. Streets buzz, cars park on the outskirts, stalls are varied. A good-natured, relaxed mood typical of smaller Somme réderies.

Completing the day

For a full hunting day, the Glisy Réderia often pairs with other 8 May events in the Amiens area: Démuin, Aubercourt, Villers-Bocage, Salouël, or the big Olympique Amiénois Braderie. A Picard réderie tour is doable — only limited by the hunter's appetite and car boot.
