StarterWelt/StarterWorld for new entrants and interested parties
Caravanning as a way of holidaymaking is delighting more and more people. To make sure new entrants and interested visitors really find products and services tailored to their needs we recommend paying a visit to the “StarterWelt” in Hall 7 first. This service-oriented and customer-friendly information centre provides all you need to know about mobile leisure. The professionals at the “StarterWelt” share practical tips and recommendations on vehicle types, travel routes or the right choice of campsite and are also available to answer concrete questions and provide one-on-one advice. In addition to this, the lecture forum will feature a diverse agenda covering a wide variety of mobile leisure formats.
Caravan Center
The passion for caravanning extends even beyond the exhibition halls bringing many visitors to the popular Caravan Center at Messe parking lot P1 (large parking lot P1). This Europe’s largest RV park boasting some 3,500 serviced and unserviced pitches during CARAVAN SALON caters to just about every wish. Due to the high demand these pitches are quickly snapped up and so should be reserved via the Ticketshop early on. Reservations are only accepted online at www.caravan-salon.com and by visitors to CARAVAN SALON.
“Abenteuer Selbstausbau” / Adventure DIY
CARAVAN SALON is also extraordinarily well positioned in the accessories, technical equipment and detachable parts segments. No other event for caravanning worldwide offers experts as well as end users a wider, more comprehensive and international line-up of products. Correspondingly, the special show “Abenteuer Selbstausbau” will be staged on the outdoor spaces between Halls 5 and 9 for the first time. Here several self-fitted recreational vehicles can be “inspected” and put through their paces. Various daily talks for beginners, advanced and professional DIY practitioners cover such themes as module installation, layout planning, electrical installations, lightweight construction materials, water supply, workshop and material science, interior, costs and time consumed.
2nd German Pitch Day: towards climate-neutrality
Over the past few years the caravanning sector has seen steady growth and the stock of recreational vehicles is at a record high. The high sales of motorhomes and caravans and the associated development potential for many regions in Germany that are less touristically developed require stepped-up efforts for expanding the caravanning infrastructure. With the aim of presenting successful pitch concepts and promoting further expansion, Monday, 29 August, will see the 2nd “Deutscher Stellplatz-Tag” (German Pitch Day) being held at CARAVAN SALON. Focal themes: a pilot project for climate-neutral motorhome pitches, Wine meets Caravanning, and “Einstellen, Abstellen, Unterstellen” – the new portal for RV shelter solutions.
Sample pitch on the outdoor premises
On the outdoor premises between Halls 10 and 17 the Caravaning Industrie Verband (CIVD) (Caravanning Industry Association) will stage a unique special show on innovative pitch technology and infrastructure in its proven manner. Here seasoned experts and manufacturers will exhibit the current modules for successfully planning motorhome pitches. A special focus here will be on e-mobility. Like in previous years visitors will have the opportunity to get expert advice on site.
Hall 3: Equipment & Outdoor as well as Travel & Nature
Hall 3 focuses on the themes Equipment & Outdoor as well as Travel & Nature. The Equipment & Outdoor segment presents suppliers of tents, folding caravans, caravanning and camping accessories as well as outdoor wear and gear. In the Travel & Nature segment visitors can find the complete range of caravanning and camping tourism – here the most attractive campsites and pitches, the most attractive regions and most versatile leisure activities are all on show. The “centrepiece” of Hall 3 is the “Travel & Nature CONNECTED” stage with a versatile and informative mix of entertainment and presentations. The interactive agenda mixes face-to-face with digital appearances – interested parties can also join online and ask questions via a chat function.
