CARAVANSALON Düsseldorf 2024: Camping as an economic engine for regions

The CARAVAN SALON, the largest caravanning trade fair in the world, is offering a comprehensive destination development program for the first time in 2024, which is specifically aimed at tourism professionals.

With the Camping Destination Day on September 4, Messe Düsseldorf will become the central contact point for everyone who wants to exploit the potential of caravanning and camping for their regions. The last few years have shown that caravanning is an important economic factor that contributes significantly to strengthening the regional economy with over 18.1 billion euros, of which 5.9 billion euros in sales directly in the holiday areas and over 52 million tourists overnight stay at German campsites. With the conference program, Messe Düsseldorf is also making a targeted offer to the tourism industry from this year.

Camping Destination Day shows the economic potential of caravanning and camping

Destination managers and companies can find out about current developments, best practices and innovative solutions at the first Camping Destination Day. Among other things, the keynote speech by Arnold Oberacher, CEO of Conos GmbH, will provide exclusive insights into the future of caravanning tourism in our neighbouring country Austria. Successful examples such as Niederrhein Tourisms and the Croatian Central Office for Tourism show how destinations can take advantage of the caravanning boom through targeted measures. Especially against the background of the practitioners present from regions that specifically promote caravanning, the event is a must for anyone who wants to benefit from the growing caravanning tourism.

Stefan Koschke, Director of the CARAVAN SALON, emphasizes: “Caravan and motorhome travellers are always looking for new and exciting travel destinations. Today, they are an economic and development factor in many regions that should not be underestimated. With the CARAVAN SALON 2024, we are offering a multi-day conference program for the first time that is tailored to the needs of tourism professionals and destination developers. We are delighted to present such a varied program that underlines the great potential of caravanning and camping for regional development.” The CARAVAN SALON 2024 is thus consolidating its position as the leading platform for mobile travel.
