Big car boot sale on the 2nd Sunday of August at the Sanssac-l'Église socio-cultural hall
On the 2nd Sunday of August, the village of Sanssac-l'Église hosts its big annual car boot sale near the socio-cultural hall, Route du Puy. With around 115 exhibitors and free entry, this event attracts bargain hunters from the Velay region. Exhibitor fee: €3 for 5 meters, no prior commitment required. A friendly atmosphere is guaranteed on the volcanic plateau of Haute-Loire.
Sanssac-l'Église is a rural commune in Haute-Loire, perched on the volcanic plateau about fifteen kilometers north of Le Puy-en-Velay. This village of about 2,000 inhabitants offers a clear view of the characteristic landscapes of the Velay region: basalt hills, green meadows, and dark stone hamlets. The Route du Puy, which crosses the village, is the main axis of local life.
Every second Sunday of August, the area around the socio-cultural hall transforms into a vast second-hand market. The event brings together about 115 exhibitors, making it one of the largest car boot sales in this part of the Velay region. Individuals and amateur dealers mingle to offer a wide variety of items: furniture, tableware, clothing, toys, books, tools, and curiosities of all kinds.
The Sanssac-l'Église car boot sale stands out for its particularly advantageous access conditions: entry is free for all visitors, and the exhibitor fee is set at €3 for 5 linear meters, one of the most affordable rates in the region. This proactive pricing policy encourages participation from the largest possible number of people and ensures a regular influx of exhibitors and visitors.
This car boot sale is part of the Velay summer calendar as a moment of conviviality and exchange. Families, retirees, young and old gather for a morning or a full day of browsing among the stalls. The Sanssac-l'Église socio-cultural hall provides a welcome logistical base in case of capricious weather. For visitors coming from further afield, the village is easily accessible from Le Puy-en-Velay via the RD31.
