Saint-Pierre de Leyritz Car Boot Sale

The Saint-Pierre de Leyritz Car Boot Sale in Leyritz-Moncassin

Nestled between the forests of Gascogne and the hills bordering the Baïse valley, the village of Leyritz-Moncassin (47700) hosts its Saint-Pierre car boot sale every summer in the church parking. This human-sized flea market is part of the tradition of village festivals that liven up the rural communes of Lot-et-Garonne throughout the summer months.

A Car Boot Sale at the Foot of the Church

The Saint-Pierre de Leyritz church is the symbolic heart of the village, and its parking lot offers a friendly and well-shaded space for setting up stalls. Individuals and families display clothes, toys, books, trinkets, tools, and various items, at prices that reflect the generosity of rural sellers. Bargain hunters from all over the Albret and Marmandais regions meet here hoping to find a rare gem.

Activities and Camaraderie

A refreshment stand and food service are available to participants throughout the day. These moments of sharing over a drink or a meal are integral to the spirit of these rural car boot sales, where meeting people is as important as the deals made. Activities for families and children sometimes punctuate the day.

Leyritz-Moncassin, Between Gascogne and Agenais

Leyritz-Moncassin is a small rural commune in Lot-et-Garonne, part of the canton of Les Forêts de Gascogne. Its territory, marked by pine forests, vineyards, and cornfields, bears the imprint of deep Gascogne. The car boot sale is one of the few annual public events that bring life to this discreet village, away from tourist routes, in a preserved natural setting.
