Solidarity flea market and craft fair for Enfants du Monde
There is no edition scheduled in 2026 for this event. This page remains accessible to archive the history of the manifestation and will be updated if a new edition is announced.
Verrières is a rural Vienne commune (86410), southeast of Poitiers, in forest country between Lussac-les-Châteaux and Montmorillon. The village, crossed by the large Verrières forest (3000+ ha), is known for its preserved natural setting. Each year, Enfants du Monde runs its flea market + craft fair there, usually in spring.
2025 edition: Sunday 1 June 2025, friendly solidarity atmosphere. Proceeds fund children's projects worldwide, drawing both hunters and charitable supporters.
Interesting combined format: private sellers emptying attics (crockery, clothes, toys, trinkets, books) alongside local or association artisans (jewellery, pottery, natural cosmetics, textiles, decor). Visitors can combine hunting and discovering local craft.
The village borders one of Vienne's largest state forests: the Verrières forest, offering hiking trails, rich biodiversity, ideal countryside day. Village itself with church, town hall, active associations — typical Montmorillonnais dynamic rurality.
This local association helps children in need in France and abroad. Flea market/craft fair funds directly support these actions. Hunting here = solidarity gesture.
June ideal for outdoor day. Bring water, cash, perhaps extend with a Verrières forest walk after shopping. On-site refreshments (crêpes, drinks, sandwiches).
Near Lussac-les-Châteaux (troglodyte prehistoric sites), Montmorillon (writing city), Saint-Savin (UNESCO abbey). Great region combining heritage, nature, solidarity.
ℹ️ 2026 edition not confirmed. At the time of our editorial verification (May 2026), we found no public source (organizer, Verrières town hall, flea market aggregator, local press) announcing a 2026 edition of this car boot sale and craft market. The last publicly documented edition was the 4th edition, organized on June 1st, 2025 by the Enfants du Monde association. If you are the organizer and this flea market is indeed taking place in 2026, please do not hesitate to inform us via the event modification form.
This open-air solidarity car boot sale, open to individuals and local artisans (jewelry, pottery, crockery, books, toys), was held in the village of Verrières (Vienne) with a refreshment stand on site.
