The Scottish Caravan, Motorhome & Holiday Home Show is returning to Glasgow from the 2nd to 5th February 2017 for the 30th year at the country’s largest indoor exhibition venue.

After attracting 25,000 visitors last year, the annual exhibition will once again take over the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre (SECC) in Glasgow where it will become home to over 200 exhibitors and a whole host of industry experts over the four-day event.

The 2017 show is set to be the biggest yet with more Caravans and Motorhomes than ever before. Ranging from entry level through to premium A class Motorhomes in excess of £120,000 as well as more mid-range products and accessories there really will be something for everyone.

Jamie Taylor, Group Show Director QD Events, said: “With more and more people choosing to holiday at home instead of venturing abroad, the show is the perfect place for visitors to get to grips with all of the fantastic opportunities that holidaying in Scotland and the UK can offer.

“The show is open to everyone, from those who already have an interest and enjoy the great outdoors to ‘first time campers’ as there is a wide variety of products and equipment to suit all types of outdoor holidays.”

Visitors to the show will be the first to uncover all the latest models, layout and interiors from luxury motorhomes, cool campervans, to the newest caravans, as well as ‘state of the art’ holiday homes and luxury lodges.

Back by popular demand, visitors can make their way to the marquee where they will find the dedicated Family Camping Area, discovering the new tent ranges available as well as a variety of high quality camping accessories.

For those looking for the latest accessory products there will be everything from caravan movers and awnings to the newest gadgets and gizmos, and for those looking to stock up on their old favourites before venturing to the great outdoors, there will be all the essentials on offer.

If that wasn’t enough, a number of clubs and associations as well as holiday parks will be present and visitors will get the chance to book in advice on holidays across the UK.

With so many exhibitors, free help and advice, and exclusive offers and deals only available to show visitors in one destination, it’s the one place to visit for outdoor enthusiasts.

Tickets start at just £9 for seniors and £10 for adults (plus booking fees). Tickets on the door are £10.50 for seniors and £12 for adults. All tickets are valid for one day entry only and can be used on any one day between Thursday 2 February and Sunday 5 February 2017.

Entry is free for children aged under 16 and there will be lots of free fun activities such as face painting, balloon modelling and a kid’s treasure hunt to keep the little ones happy.
