The world’s largest RV show returned to Düsseldorf, Germany, and Caravan Salon finally wrapped up on Sunday after drawing more than a quarter-million visitors over its 10-day run.
“With 254,000 visitors from 65 countries, CARAVAN SALON 2023 made a very positive statement,” said Erhard Wienkamp, managing director of Messe Düsseldorf, the show’s organizers. “In view of the challenging general conditions, we are more than pleased that we were able to achieve such a successful result. Trade visitors from all continents and consumers from all over Europe travelled to Düsseldorf and thus provided the special international flair of Caravan Salon.
More than 750 exhibitors from 37 countries showed their innovations and current models in 16 exhibition halls as well as the outdoor area. On more than 250,000 square meters, RVs of all sizes and price ranges, mobile homes, awnings and roof tents were on display. Accessories, technical equipment and extension parts manufacturers and distributors were also on hand, and visitors could plan their next trip or holiday individually at the stands of the camping and motorhome sites and at the destinations.
“Many visitors, a very good atmosphere and unrivalled product variety. This is how people know and appreciate CARAVAN SALON in Düsseldorf,” said Bernd Löher, newly electred president of the Caravanning Industry Association. “As a sector we can consider ourselves very lucky because such a positive trade fair result cannot be taken for granted in view of the tight economic situation and is an extremely positive impulse for the caravanning industry. With this, Caravan Salon once again reinforces its importance as a leading trade fair and beacon for our industry.
This was the 62nd Caravan Salon. The 2024 event is already announced as being Friday, Aug. 30-Sunday, Sept. 8.
