La Grande Braderie de Tours: a day of bargains
In Tours, the Grande Braderie has become an institution. On the first weekend of the new school year, several hundred exhibitors set up stalls and stores open their doors to sell off their wares. For the occasion, part of the city center is closed to traffic, and there's no shortage of bargains to be had: designer clothes at 50% off, comics for €2 or retro telephone decorations, take your time to look around and unearth some nuggets. For a comforting break, boulevard Béranger is also home to a number of gourmet stalls.

Twice a week, the "Puces de Tours" take over the Place de la Victoire, at the gateway to the Quartier des Arts. You'll find professional second-hand dealers, as well as antique books and vintage clothes. On Boulevard Béranger, every last Sunday of the month, professional exhibitors offer their nuggets on their open-air stands. Solid wood furniture, 70's lamps, porcelain tableware, recycled toys... a touch of nostalgia hangs in the air.
