Spring Market and Car Boot Sale of Sermaise

Spring Market and Car Boot Sale in Sermaise

Each spring, the village of Sermaise (49140) hosts its Spring Market associated with a car boot sale. This original formula, which combines the advantages of a local market and a flea market, makes it a particularly popular event for the inhabitants of the commune and the surrounding villages.

The spring market brings its artisanal dimension and local producers — plants, flowers, local products, crafts — while the car boot sale allows individuals to offer for sale the everyday items they wish to sell: clothes, books, toys, dishes, furniture, tools, trinkets, and various other items.

This market-flea market combination is typical of rural events in Maine-et-Loire, where versatility attracts a wider audience and revitalizes village life at a time when the good season invites people to go out and gather outdoors.
