If you are a car boot sale enthusiast then France is the place to go for fab boot sales.
They don't have private boot sales like here - rather, they are organised by local communities, well in advance and sellers have to book in advance.
They will usually have hog roasts and tents with food and drinks served at midday.
They usually start at 6am and go on all day until 6pm though that can vary.
They will take up whole streets or areas of a town or village and can be from 50 sellers to 200 or more (think Lille!)
Here is a website that gives you all the "vide greniers", "bracantes" ets for each region of France:

Amazing bargains to be had!!
