Antique/flea markets in France?

Question

We are driving to Spain this weekend, and were supposed to be stopping off at a massive flea market in Normandy, Les Andelys. My friend, whose house we were going to stay in overnight has let us down therefore we will probably continue driving.

Are there any other large antiques/flea markets in France this weekend? Any websites?

There's a good one in Nice on Mondays on the Cours Saleya

Answer 4

By far the biggest is an annual event in Lille - but you've just missed it this year. They had over a million visitors.

The web site I always use to find my way through the very many local flea markets and brocante (the French equivalent of a car boot sale) is

http://vide-greniers.org/

you type in a region or departement and it will list all the flea markets for the coming months.
