Car boot sale of the Fête Rosièroise of Rosiers-d'Égletons

The Fête Rosièroise: a festive weekend in the heart of Haute Corrèze

Every first weekend of July, Rosiers-d'Égletons celebrates its Fête Rosièroise, a three-day festive event that is the highlight of the year for this village in Haute Corrèze. From Friday to Sunday, entertainment follows one after another: barbecue, zumba, pétanque competition, musical evenings, and, the highlight of the weekend, the car boot sale and the parade of flower floats on Sunday.

Sunday's car boot sale: bargain hunting in the heart of the festival

Sunday of the Fête Rosièroise is dedicated to the car boot sale, which takes over the village of Rosiers-d'Égletons from 9 am to 6 pm. Exhibitors set up their stalls in the streets and squares of the village, offering trinkets, crockery, clothes, toys, books, and various second-hand items. The atmosphere is family-friendly and joyful, fueled by the entertainment that punctuates the day.

Flower floats: Rosièroise tradition

The highlight of Sunday is the parade of flower floats and decorated bicycles, which crosses the village around 3 pm. Children are invited to participate in costume or with their already decorated bicycles, creating a colorful and joyful procession that delights young and old alike. This popular tradition, inherited from the votive festivals of Limousin, gives the Fête Rosièroise a unique and endearing character.

Sports and leisure activities

Alongside the car boot sale and the parade, Sunday offers an exhibition of vintage vehicles in partnership with Égletons Rétro Passion, an afternoon bowling competition, and pony rides with the Égletons equestrian center. A raffle with guaranteed winning tickets concludes the festivities of this weekend full of emotions and conviviality.
