Caravan Salon will open its doors from Aug. 29 (Preview Day) to Sept. 7, at the fairgrounds in Düsseldorf, Germany.
For 10 days, over 700 exhibitors will present their latest models: caravans, motorhomes and campervans. Visitors can also expect a wide variety of accessories, technical equipment, extension elements, roof tents, mobile homes and camping and caravanning supplies. Exciting travel destinations, campsites and pitches for motorhomes are also waiting to be discovered, show directors said.
“Messe Düsseldorf and the Caravanning Industry Association are looking forward to the 64th Caravan Salon with great anticipation and optimism. Right now, the world’s most important trade fair for mobile leisure is an indispensable meeting place that provides impulses, creates orientation and sparks the enthusiasm of end consumers,” said show director Stefan Koschke. “Our visitors can look forward to an incredible variety of brands, vehicles and layouts, from compact entry-level models to luxurious dreams on four wheels. Potential customers want to experience the vehicle live – see, touch and compare – before making a purchase decision. They want to directly compare different products and brands and scrutinize them down to the last detail. This variety, depth and density of experience can only be found in this form at Caravan Salon.”
New Hall Layout
Caravan Salon will take a look into the future of mobile travel. This is where the premieres of the coming season will have their big stage, with top products, innovations and genuine world-firsts. Due to the upcoming modernization of Hall 9 in the coming years, the Salon is already creating a new hall structure that will offer visitors consistent orientation in the long term: caravan-salon.com/en/Interactive_hall_plan.
“Caravan Salon has long been more than just a product trade fair – it is a lively meeting place for dialogue, innovation and shaping the future. In recent years, the trade fair has developed into a central platform for dialogue and networking – a place where the focus is not only on vehicles and accessories, but also on visions and partnerships. The B2B conference area with the motto ‘Destination Future’ continues to grow – fueled by increasing demand from the industry. Inspiring practical examples will be used to show how innovative caravanning destinations are created – from the initial idea to successful realization. A format that provides impetus and opens up new perspectives,” show directors said.
This will include the fifth German Pitch Day of the CIVD, which will take place on Sept. 1 in cooperation with the German Tourism Association and the ADAC. Also on Sept. 1, the second Caravan Salon Innovation Stage will offer exciting insights into technology and digitalization in caravanning. On Sept. 2, the fourth “‘Nature.Tourism.Future” symposium with a focus on sustainable tourism concepts and the “Travel Industry meets Caravanning” networking event, organized in cooperation with the Travel Industry Club, are on the agenda. The second Camping Destination Day on Sept. 3 will focus on the success factors of caravanning for tourism regions.
