Vide ton sac — Le Loroux-Bottereau

Vide ton sac at the Complexe du Zéphyr

Every March, the DALU hall of the Complexe du Zéphyr in Le Loroux-Bottereau hosts the Vide ton sac event. With 70 exhibitors and pitches at €15 for 3 meters, this late-winter event is an anticipated gathering for families and second-hand enthusiasts in this town in the Nantes vineyard region.

Vide ton sac: an evocative name

The name Vide ton sac is a deliberately direct and slightly humorous title that invites everyone to get rid of their superfluous belongings. It evokes the lightness and liberation that comes from parting with objects cluttering the house, cellar, and attic. This imaginative phrase is typical of associative events that seek to de-dramatize the sorting and resale of personal items.

The DALU hall at the Complexe du Zéphyr

The DALU hall within the Complexe du Zéphyr is one of the cultural and associative spaces in Le Loroux-Bottereau. Its roof ensures the event can take place regardless of the March weather, which is still uncertain in the Nantes region. Its capacity allows for the setup of 70 exhibitors in good conditions, with enough space for visitors to move easily between stalls.

70 exhibitors for 3 meters at €15

The formula of 3 linear meters for €15 is standard and accessible. It allows 70 exhibitors to offer their items in a space sufficient to present them properly. This configuration creates a market of ideal size: large enough to offer a good variety of items and attract a significant audience, without being too large to lose the intimate and friendly atmosphere of a neighborhood car boot sale.

Le Loroux-Bottereau, cradle of Muscadet

A town in the Muscadet-Sèvre et Maine appellation, Le Loroux-Bottereau is a town of about 6,000 inhabitants in the heart of the Nantes vineyard region. Its cellars, wine estates, and vineyard landscapes make it one of the most representative towns of this world-renowned appellation. The Vide ton sac event in March contributes to the off-season animation of the town and brings together the inhabitants of the town and the surrounding vineyard for a moment of conviviality and exchange.
