Empty Your Attics: A Flea Market on the Banks of the Seine

The Cesson Festival Committee organizes its annual spring flea market "Videz vos Greniers" each year in an enchanting setting: the banks of the Seine. This event, different from the major Cesson Animation flea market, is distinguished by its unique location along the river, which offers exhibitors and visitors a singular atmosphere, between bargain-hunting and waterside stroll.

Two Types of Pitches for Exhibitors

The organization offers two formulas to exhibitors: street pitches at 4 € per meter, accessible to all, and privileged pitches along the Seine at 5 € per meter, particularly sought after for their setting and visibility. This deliberately moderate pricing allows everyone, individuals or amateur dealers, to participate without difficulty and to animate this beautiful associative event.

A Diversity of Stalls and Objects

As in any flea market, diversity is at the rendezvous: clothing, toys, books, tableware, small appliances, furniture, decorative objects, leisure items, knick-knacks, and various finds. The exhibitors, mainly Cesson residents, come to empty their attics and offer at modest prices objects often in very good condition, sometimes small forgotten treasures.

The Festival Committee, Local Life Actor

The Cesson Festival Committee is an association that animates the life of the municipality throughout the year through various festive and cultural events. The Seine-side flea market is one of the emblematic events of its program, allowing the funding of other activities while building links between residents and passing visitors.

Cesson and the Banks of the Seine

Cesson enjoys a privileged location on the banks of the Seine, near Melun and the state forests of Rougeau and Bréviande. The banks of the Seine offer a pleasant living environment and opportunities for walks and strolls along the river. The flea market fits naturally into this geography and invites visitors to extend their day with a waterside stroll.

Practical Information

The flea market takes place on the banks of the Seine in Cesson. Pitches are offered at 4 €/m for street stalls and 5 €/m for Seine-side stalls. Admission is free for visitors. The municipality is accessible via the N6 and the RER D from Paris.
