Vignacourt Réderie (September)

A Picardy flea market at the gates of Amiens

The Vignacourt Réderie is one of the well-established back-to-school rendezvous on the Somme's bargain-hunting calendar. Vignacourt, a large village of nearly 2,200 inhabitants, hosts this réderie in early September each year.

A bustling village centre

Throughout the day, the streets of the Vignacourt centre come alive with exhibitors and bargain hunters.

A varied bargain-hunting offering

Exhibitors, mainly private individuals, offer the classic Picardy bric-a-brac. A few semi-professionals complete the offering with antique furniture and collectibles.

Vignacourt, a village with photographic history

Vignacourt enjoys particular fame thanks to the Thuillier-Raff collection, an exceptional set of photographic plates taken during the First World War.

An essential rendezvous of Greater Amiens

The Vignacourt Réderie is among the essentials of the back-to-school bargain-hunting season.
