Saint-Lambert Car Boot Sale in Val-du-Layon

The Saint-Lambert car boot sale, organized in the territory of Val-du-Layon (49750), brings together approximately 100 exhibitors each year in this commune on the Layon hillsides. Individuals and bargain hunters meet there for a day of flea marketing in an exceptional wine-growing setting.

The 100 exhibitors offer a varied selection of second-hand items: clothing and accessories, furniture and decorative objects, books and old documents, records and cassettes, toys and children's games, tableware and table art, agricultural and garden tools, items related to vines and wine, trinkets, and local curiosities. The presence of agricultural objects and tools recalls the rural and wine-growing tradition of the area.

The atmosphere of the Saint-Lambert car boot sale is marked by the conviviality of the Anjou wine-growing villages. It is not uncommon to find bottles of Coteaux du Layon or Chaume sold by local winegrowers in addition to their stalls.
