Flea markets and garage sales on Monday, July 14, 2025, a public holiday, in Paris and the Île-de-France region

On Monday July 14, 2025, the French capital celebrates its national holiday in style, with parades, balls and fireworks. At the same time, flea markets and garage sales set up at dawn in Paris and the Île-de-France region to let yesterday's treasures shine. A festive day to celebrate the magic of vintage!

On Bastille Day, July 14, 2025, Paris sets the world alight with a parade down the Champs-Elysées, fanfare , a symphony concert at the foot of the Eiffel Tower, and a fireworks finale that makes the sky crackle. But while the Republic celebrates, another front is busy behind the scenes... that of the bargain hunters on a mission!

Yes, on this bank holiday Monday, flea markets and garage sales are also on the agenda, flags flying and bric-a-brac in cheek! To extend the weekend, from dawn onwards, stalls line up as if on parade. In Paris and the Île-de-France region, trinkets, vinyl records and porcelain mugs are all on display. The light artillery of the past on display under the sun!

We rummage, we negotiate, we unearth. A striking vase, an old novel to devour, a tablecloth that smells of old-fashioned Sundays... Here, the passion for second-hand goods is king, and the pleasure of digging up, unearthing and bargain-hunting brings together all profiles, whether you're a seasoned collector or a Sunday stroller.
