The summer car boot sale on the Esplanade, two Sundays a month
The Esplanade car boot sale in Grenoble is held on the 2nd and 3rd Sundays of the month from May to August on the Boulevard de l'Esplanade. With around 130 exhibitors per session, this recurring event offers Grenoble bargain hunters a regular meeting place throughout the summer, from 6 am to 2 pm. It is open to individuals and professionals. Free entry for visitors.
Every summer, the Boulevard de l'Esplanade in Grenoble hosts a bi-monthly car boot sale that has become a must-attend event for Sundays in Grenoble. From May to August, on the 2nd and 3rd Sundays of the month, stalls are set up along this wide avenue to offer bargain hunters a morning stroll.
The Esplanade car boot sale takes place early in the morning, from 6 am to 2 pm, which helps to avoid the intense afternoon heat in mid-summer. This morning format attracts the most motivated bargain hunters, who know that the best deals are found before the heat sets in. Around 130 exhibitors are present at each session, offering a varied selection.
The regularity of this car boot sale is its main advantage: with two sessions per month from May to August (plus an additional date at the end of August), visitors can return regularly to discover new items. Exhibitors, both individuals and professionals, renew their offerings from one session to the next.
The Boulevard de l'Esplanade is a wide, tree-lined avenue that is perfectly suited for bargain hunting. Stalls are lined up along the walkway, allowing for smooth circulation even on busy days. Its proximity to the city center and public transport makes it easily accessible for all Grenoble residents.
The Esplanade car boot sale is inseparable from the Grenoble summer. When the sun shines on the surrounding mountains and the heat slowly rises, the boulevard's aisles come alive with bargain hunters in search of treasures. The morning format, which ends at 2 pm, fits perfectly into the summer lifestyle: you hunt for bargains in the morning, and enjoy the afternoon for swimming or mountain activities. Phone contacts for information are 06 09 45 85 90 and 06 87 77 23 50, allowing interested exhibitors to inquire about participation details.
