French flea market comes to Grantham

A French-style flea market will take place in Grantham on Saturday 19th July, for the first time in ‘beaucoup’ years.

The market, Brocante in French, will feature stalls selling the nation’s wares as well as artisan creations, including artwork, ceramics and jewellery.

There will be a café stand selling French cuisine and coffee and French music and entertainment in the Market Place.

The regular Saturday Market starts at 8am with the French aspect in full flow from 10am.

The Brocante is the latest confirmed event to take place in Grantham Market Place following its revamp, which brought a reimagining of the type of events that could take place there.

Cllr Paul Stokes, South Kesteven District Council’s deputy leader and cabinet member for culture and leisure, said: “Visit our Brocante and experience something of French culture in the heart of Grantham.

“Hosting attractions like this helps the local economy and supports our ambition for the district, driving growth and making South Kesteven a better place in which to live as well as attracting visitors.

“This market and its associated events will add colour and entertainment – and also makes life entertaining for all the nationalities who call South Kesteven their home.”
