Riscle Summer Car Boot Sale - Place des Arènes

Riscle's Grand Musical Car Boot Sale

Every summer, the Place des Arènes in Riscle (32400) hosts a grand musical car boot sale that can attract up to 200 exhibitors. The originality of this summer event lies in its entertainment by the Festival Swing Manouche 32: throughout the day, Manouche guitar musicians accompany the stroll of treasure hunters, creating a festive and bohemian atmosphere.

200 Exhibitors on the Place des Arènes

The vast Place des Arènes in Riscle allows for the setup of 200 pitches for exhibitors, who offer a wide range of second-hand items: clothing, toys, books, crockery, trinkets, furniture, tools, decorative objects, and various curiosities. The price is €2 per linear meter. Visitors benefit from free entry and an exceptionally large treasure hunting space for a town of this size.

Manouche Swing and Vintage Vehicles

The Festival Swing Manouche 32 animates the day with Manouche guitar concerts in the spirit of Django Reinhardt. Three groups perform in succession in the afternoon for free concerts. In parallel, a free exhibition of vintage vehicles attracts enthusiasts of vintage cars and motorcycles. A pétanque competition (Djungo Reinhart) adds a touch of Gascon conviviality to the event.

Catering and Conviviality

The refreshment stand and catering offer grills, sandwiches, and cold drinks. The midday meal, accompanied by musical entertainment, is a convivial moment shared by exhibitors and visitors. Riscle, on the banks of the Adour and in the heart of the Saint Mont vineyards, offers an ideal setting for this summer treasure hunting day. The combination of a car boot sale with a Manouche music festival makes it a unique event in the Gers flea market scene, not to be missed under any circumstances.
