Valdivienne Brocante & Vide-Greniers

Three annual editions in the Vienne valley

Valdivienne is a new commune formed in 2017 by merging several communes (Chapelle-Viviers, Salles-en-Toulon, Saint-Martin-la-Rivière, Morthemer, Valdivienne) in the Vienne valley near Chauvigny. This multi-village structure enables brocante organisation on multiple dates across the year, rotating hamlets.

2026 has three dates: Sunday 24 May, Sunday 5 July, Saturday 15 August. This regularity makes Valdivienne a landmark for Poitiers-Chauvigny-Montmorillon area collectors.

What to find

• Antique furniture, rustic pieces, decor
• China, porcelain, glassware, antique linen
• Clothes, toys, baby items
• Old books, comics, vinyl, postcards
• Tools, garden gear, DIY
• Trinkets, collectibles, curiosities
