Vide Grenier d'Alissas

The monthly car boot sale of the Comité des fêtes d'Alissas

Every 1st Sunday of the month, the village of Alissas (07210) comes alive to the rhythm of its monthly car boot sale, organized with enthusiasm by the Comité des fêtes de la commune. Nestled in the Ardèche department, near Privas, this friendly event brings together exhibitors and bargain hunters in an authentically Ardèche atmosphere. An event rooted in local life, which makes the heart of the village beat throughout the year.

A green setting in the heart of the Coirons

Alissas is an Ardèche village located on the first foothills of the Coirons plateau, a few kilometers from Privas, the prefecture of Ardèche. This charming village, surrounded by oak forests and scrubland, offers a remarkable natural setting. The car boot sale takes place in a well-defined area of the village: near the skate-park and the Salle Coiron multi-purpose hall, with a possible extension to Place des Platanes, close to local shops. These spaces comfortably accommodate exhibitors' stalls and visitor traffic.

Organization and operation

The Comité des fêtes d'Alissas ensures the rigorous and friendly organization of each monthly edition. Exhibitors can set up their stalls from 6 am, with doors opening to the public from 8 am to 5 pm. The event is open to both individuals wishing to clear out their attics and flea market professionals. Pitches are offered at an affordable price, around €12 for 6 linear meters, with booking recommended by SMS to the organizing committee.

A refreshment stand and light catering are provided on site, adding to the friendly atmosphere of the day. The organizers regularly liven up the event by offering themed exhibitions: vintage vehicles, old fire trucks, or other local curiosities sometimes enrich the event with a heritage dimension appreciated by the public.

A varied offer for all bargain hunters

The Vide Grenier d'Alissas is a popular event for bargain hunters and collectors in southern Ardèche. You can find a wide variety of items: furniture and antique objects, tableware, glassware, lighting, clothing and fashion accessories, books and comics, vinyl records and cassettes, toys and board games, tools and garden equipment, trinkets and decorative objects, and many other hidden treasures. The monthly rotation of exhibitors ensures a constant renewal of the offer, encouraging regulars to return each month in search of a rare find.

Alissas, a lively Ardèche village

The village of Alissas has about 1,500 inhabitants and benefits from a privileged geographical location, halfway between the Rhône valley and the Ardèche highlands. Close to Privas (about 10 km), it is easily accessible from the main roads of Ardèche. Local associations are particularly dynamic, driven in particular by the Comité des fêtes, which organizes numerous festive and cultural events throughout the year to liven up the commune. The monthly car boot sale is one of the pillars of this local activity, building loyalty among a community of bargain hunters and sellers who meet regularly in a warm and relaxed atmosphere.

It is an opportunity to build connections, exchange objects steeped in history, and support a local circular economy. Its monthly regularity, maintained throughout the year, makes it one of the most reliable and popular car boot sales in the Privas area.
