Queensland’s largest caravanning and camping show is rolling into the Brisbane Showgrounds from 8-13 June, with over 250 exhibitors displaying all the latest in caravans, motorhomes, campervans, tent trailers, slide-ons, camping accessories and more.

With dozens of brand new models to be launched at the show, popular seminars covering towing, solar and satellite communication, cooking demonstrations from the Cast Iron Boys, an enticing selection of food trucks and a kids zone to keep the whole family entertained, the show has something for everyone, says Show Manager Jason Plant.

“Caravanning offers freedom to explore the great outdoors at an affordable price, with one investment offering years of enjoyment and memories,” he said.

“As Queensland’s largest caravanning and camping show, there is no better place to arm yourself with information, compare different models and pickup a bargain at the same time.

“We know mums and dads are finding caravanning a more popular holidaying style, so we’ve really catered to families on the weekend with plenty of free activities to keep the kids entertained!”

Caravan and campervan registrations have risen 15 percent in recent years, and with camping now costing families as much as 84 percent less than the average hotel accommodation, Mr Plant said this figure is expected to continue to climb.

“Queensland has the highest percentage of caravan registrations for any state. With the current average cost of just $26 per night for a powered caravan site, it’s little wonder that families are getting back to the great outdoors and choosing caravanning and camping as the most affordable holiday option,” Mr Plant said.

Getting to the show has never been easier, with free train travel to and from the show with all tickets purchased online.

“Our free train transport offer is valid from any station on the Queensland Rail City Train network; from as far north as Gympie, to as far south as the Gold Coast and west to Ipswich. There are also plenty of parking options with over 2,000 car parks just a short walk from the Brisbane Showgrounds.”

One lucky visitor will also win an Australian-built Bailey Rangefinder Nebula caravan valued at $69,990.

Tickets are on sale now at Queensland Caravan Show, at $15 for concession card holders, and $20 for adults. School aged children are free with a paying adult.
