Before celebrating the return of spring, the weekend of March 1 and 2 will see the return of a beautiful event just a stone’s throw from Paris. The excitement will be felt in the north-east of Paris, more precisely at Cité Fertile, where a fine Japanese brocante will be orchestrated by the inimitable Koji Fukushima.
A huge Japanese brocante soon to be held in Paris
Every time a flea market or garage sale is organized in Paris, the capital’s bargain hunters respond to the call. On the other hand, Japanese culture also arouses curiosity at every event paying tribute to it. After the success of the XXL Matsuri festival, the “Japanese Bestiary ” exhibition and Shizen, the Japanese Christmas market, we know that this new celebration of culture from the land of the rising sun will attract its fair share of curious onlookers!
On March 1 and 2, you’re invited to the Cité Fertile for two enchanting days of bargains and discovery. At the helm of this joyous gathering is the most genial Japanese second-hand dealer in Paris, Koji Fukushima, a former racing cyclist turned china king.
This curious character will play the role of master of ceremonies during these two colorful days. In the stalls of this XXL flea market, you’ll find everything you need to treat yourself and even find a great gift for Valentine’s Day. Kimonos, kokeshis, vintage objects, ceramics and decorative items– hundreds and hundreds of rarities will make up the stalls of this one-of-a-kind market.
So, if you’re in the mood for 2-3 little Japanese curiosities, you know what to do with your pre-spring weekend.
