The Hagetmau Méca Passion Car Boot Sale

Hagetmau Méca Passion is a club of vintage vehicle enthusiasts based in Hagetmau, in Chalosse landaise. Every year in September, the club organizes its major auto, motorcycle, and tractor exchange market, accompanied by a car boot sale and garage sale open to all. The event takes place on avenue Charles Domercq, in the Hagetmau arena square.

A Double Event

The originality of this event lies in the combination of a classic car boot sale and an exchange market specializing in vintage automobiles and mechanics. Individuals can clear out their attics or garages while mechanics enthusiasts can exchange spare parts, technical documentation, and car miniatures. A tombola with a 2 CV to be won is organized at each edition, adding a fun element to the event.

The Tractor Parade

Sunday is marked by a parade of vintage tractors that goes through Hagetmau, attracting the curious and those nostalgic for rural life of yesteryear. This parade, accompanied by an exhibition of vintage vehicles, is a popular spectacle for families and mechanical heritage enthusiasts.

Hagetmau, Capital of Chalosse

Hagetmau is a commune of about 4,500 inhabitants, the cantonal capital of Chalosse. Known for its arenas and Landes bullfights, the town hosts many events throughout the year.
