For decades, the Caravan Salon in Düsseldorf has been the most important meeting place for everyone who loves mobile travel. As the world's leading trade fair for caravanning and camping, it brings together exhibitors, trade visitors, and travel enthusiasts from all over the world every year. Whether motorhomes, caravans, tents, or accessories – the leading brands present themselves at the Caravan Salon and set standards for an industry that is continuously growing and changing.
The Caravan Salon showcases the entire spectrum of mobile travel. The range extends from compact panel vans and luxurious motorhomes to innovative lightweight caravans. The focus is not only on vehicles, but also on technology, equipment, and accessories – everything that makes traveling flexible and comfortable. In addition to classics such as motorhomes and caravans, outdoor equipment is becoming increasingly important. Roof tents, modular camping solutions, and e-bikes expand the possibilities for experiencing nature and freedom in new ways. The trade fair also offers an excellent introduction for beginners: consultations, test drives, and a wealth of information help visitors find the right vehicle or equipment. For an overview of other important events, take a look at Messe Düsseldorf.
The caravanning industry is undergoing dynamic development, and the Caravan Salon reflects this change. Sustainability plays a central role in this: modern vehicles score points with more efficient drive concepts, improved insulation technology, and environmentally friendly materials. Innovative solar technology and energy-saving heating systems make independent, resource-saving travel possible. Technological advances are also changing the way travel is planned and experienced. Smart control systems for vehicles, digital navigation and assistance systems, and modern connectivity solutions are now standard features in many models. The trend toward self-sufficient travel concepts, such as powerful energy storage and water supply systems, is also clearly noticeable.
What makes the Caravan Salon special is its experiential character. In addition to the classic exhibition, there are numerous themed worlds that bring camping and caravanning to life. In the “Starter World,” interested visitors can find tips for getting started with mobile travel. Outdoor areas and test tracks invite visitors to experience vehicles and accessories in action. There is also information on travel destinations and parking spaces. Numerous tourist regions use the trade fair to present attractive travel ideas – from classic campsites to new concepts such as sustainable glamping.
The exhibition is accompanied by an extensive supporting program. Workshops, lectures, and discussion panels address current topics, focusing on trends in vehicle construction, new camping concepts, legal developments, and questions about sustainable travel. Visitors benefit from the opportunity to exchange ideas directly with experts and industry representatives and to deepen their in-depth knowledge. With over 700 exhibitors from more than 30 countries, the Caravan Salon is also an international meeting place for manufacturers, dealers, and service providers. The intensive exchange between the various players in the industry helps to drive innovation and initiate new collaborations.
The future of mobile travel is diverse and will be shaped by technological and social changes. Alternative drive systems, sustainable materials, smart networking, and new concepts for flexible travel will dominate the discussion at the trade fair. At the same time, the longing for freedom, nature, and independence remains central—values that caravanning embodies like hardly any other form of vacation. The Caravan Salon impressively demonstrates how tradition and innovation can be combined. Anyone interested in mobile travel will find inspiration, in-depth information, and insights into the future of a dynamically growing industry here.
