Vide-grenier de Valojoulx: Treasure hunting in the heart of Périgord Noir

Every spring, the Comité des Fêtes de Valojoulx organizes its annual car boot sale in the village center. This treasure hunting event brings together the inhabitants of the Vézère valley and bargain hunters in an authentic village setting, between Montignac-Lascaux and Les Eyzies.

Valojoulx, a village in the Vézère valley

Valojoulx is a small commune of less than 300 inhabitants, perched on the heights between the Vézère river and its tributaries, in the heart of the Périgord Noir. This discreet village is surrounded by oak and chestnut forests, limestone cliffs, and prehistoric caves. Its proximity to Lascaux and the troglodyte sites of the Vézère valley makes it a place steeped in history and mystery, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

A popular village event

The Valojoulx car boot sale is a human-sized event, where people come as much to hunt for treasures as to meet their neighbors. The fête committee, a pillar of local associative life, ensures the organization, refreshments, and food. The rate of €2 per linear meter for exhibitors remains very accessible, encouraging wide participation.

Practical information

The car boot sale takes place all day in the center of Valojoulx. Entry is free for visitors. Exhibitor fee: €2 per linear meter. Refreshments and food available on-site.
