Car boot sale of the Football Club of Bessey-lès-Cîteaux

The car boot sale of the Football Club of Bessey-lès-Cîteaux

Every year in June, the Football Club of Bessey-lès-Cîteaux organizes its annual car boot sale in the heart of the village. This sporting and associative event brings together 50 to 100 exhibitors and attracts treasure hunters from the Saône plain and the south of Dijon. The profits from the day contribute to the operation of the local football club.

An early morning event for treasure hunters

The Bessey-lès-Cîteaux car boot sale is distinguished by its very early welcome for exhibitors, from 5 a.m., allowing early risers to set up quietly before the first visitors arrive. The price of €2 per linear meter remains very affordable, encouraging wide participation from individuals. Entry is free for visitors.

Bessey-lès-Cîteaux, a Cistercian village

Bessey-lès-Cîteaux is a village of about 800 inhabitants located in the Saône plain, a few kilometers from the famous abbey of Cîteaux, the cradle of the Cistercian order founded in 1098. The village, surrounded by agricultural land and forests, retains an authentic rural character. Associative life is dynamic, with a football club that enlivens the commune throughout the year.

A car boot sale for local sport

Beyond treasure hunting, this car boot sale is a moment of solidarity in the service of local sport. The proceeds from the day allow the Football Club to finance its activities, the purchase of equipment, and the travel of its teams. Clothes, toys, books, dishes, tools, and various objects are displayed side by side, in a friendly and sporting atmosphere that is the pride of this small village in Côte-d'Or.
