Caravan Salon - Strong first weekend confirms great interest in mobile travel as a form of holiday

The first weekend of CARAVAN SALON DÜSSELDORF 2025 confirmed the great interest in caravanning.

CARAVAN SALON the world's largest platform for industry professionals

Almost 90,000 visitors attended the world's largest trade fair for mobile leisure over the first three days and were impressed by the unique range of products on offer in the 15 exhibition halls and the outdoor area. "Mobile leisure holidays continue to boom and are very popular among all social classes and age groups. The CARAVAN SALON is so popular because Düsseldorf is the only place where visitors can find out about the latest products in the industry in such detail and also buy them directly at the trade fair. At the same time, the CARAVAN SALON is the world's largest platform for industry professionals, who can exchange ideas and make contacts here," says Fair Director Stefan Koschke.

However, visitors had to be patient on Saturday due to the large crowds. ‘For the second weekend, we recommend that caravanning fans use public transport due to the high number of visitors expected. As a result of the Ed Sheeran concert series, there may be traffic delays on the way back from the exhibition grounds,’ adds Koschke.

At CARAVAN SALON DÜSSELDORF, 810 exhibitors from 41 countries will be presenting motorhomes and caravans of all sizes and price categories, as well as base vehicles, accessories, technical equipment, conversion parts, tents, mobile homes, campsites, motorhome sites and travel destinations until 7 September.

North Rhine-Westphalia's Minister President Hendrik Wüst officially opened the 64th CARAVAN SALON on Friday, 27 August. Hendrik Wüst then took a tour of the exhibition and learned about the wide range of products and services on offer in the field of mobile leisure. The Minister President exchanged ideas with representatives of the industry at the Caravaning Industry Association (CIVD) and various North Rhine-Westphalia exhibitors. The focus was on the challenges and opportunities of camping and caravanning tourism in North Rhine-Westphalia, climate-neutral energy concepts for campsite operators and the topic of sustainability.

Travelling to the exhibition grounds by public transport is recommended and is easy, uncomplicated and inexpensive with the mobil.nrw ticket app.
