The Solliès Pont Vintage Market: Between Nostalgia And Conviviality
The town of Solliès-Pont in the Var region is the capital of figs... but that's not all! Once a year, the castle hosts a vintage market to the delight of fans of antique items, old cars, vinyl records, and other accessories from the 1940s to 1960s. This flea market takes place in a warm atmosphere to the sound of rockabilly music: a guaranteed good time!
Nostalgia has its perks.
Vintage decor is more popular than ever, and nostalgia is a big seller, as evidenced by the crowds at the Solliès Pont vintage market near Toulon.
Once a year, people flock to the Château de Solliès-Pont in the Var region to rummage and spend a day in the spirit of the "American dream".
This event is organized by Nathalie and Stéphan from the Sun vintage association (see the association's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/SUN-Vintage-255526327900434/timeline).
It is a flea market dedicated to the 40's to 60's, held in a festive, rock'n'roll, and slightly nostalgic atmosphere...
You can expect to see pin-ups, marvel at old cars, and find cult and/or kitsch items to redecorate your home.
