US Vals Car boot sale — Vals-près-le-Puy

The US Vals Car Boot Sale in Vals-près-le-Puy

Every May 8th, US Vals, the football club of the town of Vals-près-le-Puy in the Haute-Loire department, organizes its annual car boot sale. This event, held on the vast parking lots of the cultural center and the Bernard Faure stadium, avenue Charles Massot, has become one of the most popular flea market events for the inhabitants of the Puy-en-Velay area.

A quality location in the heart of Vals-près-le-Puy

The choice of location is particularly judicious: the parking lots of the cultural center and the Bernard Faure stadium offer generous space to accommodate a large number of exhibitors. The proximity of the football stadium, home of US Vals, places this event within the club's universe and reinforces the sense of community belonging. Avenue Charles Massot is easily accessible from Le Puy-en-Velay and neighboring towns.

Advantageous exhibition conditions

The price is set at €2 per linear meter, with a minimum of 2 meters. A appreciated feature: exhibitors can leave their vehicle on their spot, provided they reserve at least 3 meters. This "car trunk" option is popular for exhibitors who wish to display their items directly from their vehicle, facilitating transport and setup. Coffee is offered to all exhibitors as a morning welcome.

From 6 am to 6 pm, a full day of treasure hunting

The event runs from 6 am to 6 pm, offering a full day for treasure hunting. Regulars know that you have to arrive early to find the best items: books, vinyl records, tools, dishes, toys, clothes, and collectibles are available from dawn. The refreshment stand and snack bar on site allow exhibitors and visitors to eat throughout the day.

US Vals and its local roots

US Vals is a football club whose roots go back into the history of Vals-près-le-Puy, a residential town in the agglomeration of Le Puy-en-Velay. By organizing this car boot sale, the club fulfills a dual mission: generating funds for its teams and sports training, and contributing to the animation of local life. It is sport serving the community, a well-established tradition in the associative fabric of Haute-Loire.
