Late Spring Holiday: A long Weekend of Antique Hunting
It has become a real tradition in Provence: during the Late Spring Holiday, from 3rd to 6th June, a thousand and one antique fairs, car boot sales (“vide-greniers”) and other flea markets (“brocantes”) flourish everywhere. Just as many reasons to visit one of our many picturesque villages and meet the locals!
