At the annual Brocante market in Saanen, exhibitors come from near and far to offer their antique treasures and artisanal goods or local retailers that sell their products.

But a particular group of exhibitors fill their stands with objects to sell for a greater purpose – charity projects close to the hearts in Saanenland. Local projects like the Cura Children’s Foundation and OhJosh have teamed up in a goods & bake sale – with all the money going towards their summer projects.

Established organisations such as Lions Club Gstaad-Saanenland are a reoccurring favourite with their popular and festive food and drinks tent. Rotary Club Gstaad -Saanenland and the Soroptimists sell their collected objects and will donate the proceeds to charity. Read more on our webpage about the Donate a Bag for a Heart project by the Soroptimists. (See separate post for supporting this cause)

Get your purses out and be ready for the Brocante & Markt Saanen on 5 August 2023.
