The Braderie Weekend
What would you like to do?
Lille's giant flea market with a group of first-timers: stalls at dawn, mussels at noon, dancing at night.
Dawn
The streets fill before sunrise. The group splits by treasure: records, lamps, old maps.
Noon
Everyone meets for lunch on the Grand Place. Stories of the best finds.
Night
Music in the squares, a bal in Wazemmes, and a plan to come back next year together.
