On 5-6 September 2026, flea markets and antique fairs fill the calendar in Burgundy-Franche-Comté: over 7,000 square metres of professional antiques in Dole, and major gatherings in Belfort, Ladoix-Serrigny and Prémery.
First weekend of September, in the Jura.
Dole opens its professional antiques fair. On 5-6 September 2026 (05-06/09), Burgundy-Franche-Comté trades from one end of the region to the other: the Jura, the Territoire de Belfort, the Côte-d'Or and the Yonne host flea markets, car boot sales and antique fairs, several of them fixed on this same weekend for years.
Seven thousand square metres of professional antiques in Dole
The Dole exhibition centre, on Avenue de Lahr, hosts the SolidarBroc fair on 5-6 September, in the Jura. Over 7,000 square metres of exhibition space open for this professional event, held every year on the first weekend of September.
An antiques fair on a regional scale.
Professional dealers travel in from across Burgundy-Franche-Comté, and sometimes further, for two days of trading under one roof. Antiques, old furniture, vintage pieces and collectibles fill the aisles of the exhibition centre, Saturday and Sunday alike.
The size sets Dole apart from the rest of the regional calendar this weekend. No other listed event reaches such covered floor space, or draws dealers from such a wide radius. The professional format, open to trade sellers rather than private ones, changes the nature of the browsing: pieces arrive already sourced, restored or appraised.
The rest of the weekend, between city markets and village festivals
Two city markets open on the same Sunday, on historic squares. In Belfort, the flea market on Place d'Armes brings together around 150 stallholders, an institution over fifty years old. In Pontarlier, the car boot sale on Place Saint-Pierre gathers 150 in turn, the largest antiques gathering in the area.
Three back-to-school events pass the hundred-stallholder mark. The autumn car boot sale of FC Corgoloin-Ladoix sets up around 300 at the hamlet of Buisson, at the foot of the Côte de Beaune vineyards. In Prémery, the town-centre antiques fair brings together 200 under the market hall of the town hall, mussels and chips included. Anjoutey pairs its car boot sale with over 1,000 metres of stalls, two music stages and eight bands booked through the day.
Three events stand apart from the rest:
- in Joigny, the retro and vintage fashion market spreads 60 stallholders over two days, a festive evening on Saturday and an open-air market on Sunday;
- in Saint-Claude, the Zic à Brac musical antiques fair sells instruments, vinyl, CDs and sheet music at the Maison du Peuple;
- in La Pesse, the village festival car boot sale sits above 1,100 metres of altitude, in this Nordic ski resort of the Haut-Jura.
