The A47 Car Boot Sale is an outdoor event that takes place on 27 acres of land within a picturesque location of rolling countryside and farmland in Leicester. It is open from March to October, every Sunday (weather permitting).
Traders at a market in Leicester have been told they will lose their pitches in the autumn when the market is set to close. The city council said it was closing Beaumont Market in Beaumont Leys following a gradual decline in trading.
It runs every Sunday from March to November, with seller entry starting at 06:00 am and buyer entry at 07:00 am. Sellers can enter the event with cars for £12 or £15 if with a trailer, and vans for £16.
When to arrive – Some car boot 'experts' suggest that you should visit a car boot sale both at opening time, to view the best items before they are snapped up, and then again at the end, to offer cash that sellers can't refuse if they want to avoid taking everything home.
Beaumont Leys is a suburb and electoral ward in north-western Leicester, in the Leicester district, in the ceremonial county of Leicestershire, England.

The A47 Car Boot will be open this Sunday, April 30, weather permitting. On Bank Holiday Monday, there will be an Autojumble and Classic Car Show. There will be no car boot held on the Monday. It is open from 6am.

How much to charge for clothes at a car boot sale?
Car boot sales are known as a place to pick up bargains. If your asking price is too high you are unlikely to make many sales. A rough guide for pricing is to sell items at 10-15% of the original value. Obviously, this depends on the condition of the item but don't expect huge numbers from individual items.
