Calling All Science Fiction Lovers!

Les Intergalactiques, The Science Fiction Festival, is coming to Lyon from 25th until 30th April 2019.

The highlight of the science fiction festival is the flea market, where individuals sell their science fiction related products. Photo taken from the event’s Facebook page.

Geek Car Boot Sale

It is La Brocante des Intergalactiques (translated as the Intergalactic flea market) which is the real ‘crème de la crème’ of the festival.

Les Intergalactiques takes its foundation from the idea of ‘geek car boot sales’. The festival will allow individuals to sell a variety of products related to science fiction. It will take place on the 28th April 2019 at Lyon’s MJC Monplaisir.

60 Exhibitioners

60 exhibitioners will sell their goods at the flea market, ranging from retro video games and consoles, to Mangas, boardgames, figurines, and cult films.

All exhibitioners must be independent individuals, selling new or secondhand products. Other professionals are not allowed, meaning that everything you purchase is truly unique.

Get Involved

Not only can you apply to have a stand at La Brocante, you can also volunteer to help out – be it cooking, working in the ticket office, welcoming the public or artists, decorating, etc.

Other Events

Other than the flea market, during the Intergalactiques festival there will be many other events. For example, on 25th April 2019, there will be a Zombie Walk at the Esplanade de la Grande Côte in Lyon 1, followed by live outdoor music at 8pm at the Halles de la Martinières in Lyon 1, and an electro music night from 10pm-4am at La Maison Mère in Lyon 1.
