Car boot sale of Lay-Saint-Christophe

The car boot sale of Lay-Saint-Christophe: village tradition

Every year, on the second Sunday of September, the village of Lay-Saint-Christophe hosts its traditional car boot sale. Organized by the Association Familiale with the support of the municipality, this event is part of the associative and friendly life of this residential commune located north of Nancy.

An authentic village setting

The car boot sale is set up in the heart of the village, on Place Emile Conte and Rue Baron de Courcelles. This picturesque setting, typical of Lorraine villages, offers a pleasant walking route among the exhibitors' stalls. Visitors can stroll from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., enjoying the peaceful and warm atmosphere that characterizes Lay-Saint-Christophe.

Free participation upon reservation

The originality of this car boot sale lies in its free participation for exhibitors: booking a spot is done directly at the town hall, upon presentation of an identity document. This accessible formula encourages participation from residents of the village and surrounding communes, ensuring a wide variety of items offered for sale.

Catering in the town hall courtyard

A catering and refreshment area is available in the town hall courtyard, allowing visitors and exhibitors to eat throughout the day. The atmosphere is family-friendly and relaxed, conducive to meetings and exchanges between neighbors and passing bargain hunters.
