Annual Corsican Parkinson Car Boot Sale - Porto-Vecchio

A major annual event in December in Porto-Vecchio

Every December, the Corse Parkinson association organizes its grand annual car boot sale in Porto-Vecchio (20137), South Corsica. This flagship event of the local associative calendar complements the association's regular activities — weekly car boot sales on Saturdays at Bar Pimpan and monthly ones on the first Sunday of the month at the Weldom parking lot — by offering a larger-scale event as the end-of-year holidays approach.

The Corse Parkinson Association

An end-of-year solidarity event

The annual December car boot sale is an opportunity for residents of Porto-Vecchio and the surrounding region to clear out their closets before the new year, while contributing to a local and human cause. Exhibitors, exclusively individuals, offer second-hand items, clothing, toys, books, trinkets, and other finds at affordable prices.

The warm atmosphere of this second-hand market in December, in the town of Porto-Vecchio, makes it a friendly occasion appreciated by both permanent residents and tourists visiting during the low season.

Porto-Vecchio in December

Outside the summer season, Porto-Vecchio returns to its rhythm as a human-sized town, focused on its residents. South Corsica in December offers a mild and sunny climate compared to the mainland, making outdoor car boot sales very pleasant. This grand annual car boot sale is thus part of the social and solidarity life of the local community in the South of Corsica.
