Place du Jeu de Balle Brocante


Flea market of secondhand items.
Everyday : 7am - 2pm
Location: quartier Les Marolles on rue Blaes between rue du Chevreuil and rue de l'Hectolitre.

This place is always popular. Lots of junk. Photo taken on a Tuesday. The Friday evening food market I have found advertised does not take place.

Since 2006, to celebrate Tintin's visit to this market in 'Le Secret de la Licorne' a special Tintin day is held on the Saturday nearest the Belgian national holiday (21 July) -- scheduled for the 19th in 2008.
