Stars are lining up to walk the red carpet at the Caravan, Camping & Motorhome Show 2015. From 17-22 February next year, the NEC will play host to the UK’s biggest start-of-season holiday showcase and the star studded guest line-up just made it even bigger.

The show will feature many well-known personalities, including TV’s wilderness bushcraft expert Ray Mears and inspirational Olympic champion Sally Gunnell. Both stars will speak about their passions and undertake audience Q&As in the Experts’ Theatre. Sally will also star in the Dog Agility feature with her dog, Diggy.

TV and radio personality Matt Baker will also make an appearance on opening day. He will play host to a range of activities on The Caravan Club Stand. If that wasn’t enough, professional surfer Melodie King from Cornwall, will appear throughout the event in the Expert’s Theatre.

Ray grew up in Southern England on the North Downs, where he learnt about nature’s finest moments and how to track foxes in the forest. Now, he is recognised throughout the world as an authority on the subjects of bushcraft and survival and will be making an appearance on Thursday 19 February.

Sally is better known for her golf medal winning run in the 400m hurdles at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. She is now seen as part of the BBC Sport team and has made appearances in numerous TV shows, A Question of Sport and Total Wipeout. Sally will appear on Wednesday 18 February.

Professional surfer Melodie King, is one of the sports rising stars, being only 17-years-old and currently placed fifth in the UK in the under 18s ladies division. Melodie will be present for the entire event. Two time BAFTA winning presenter, Matt Baker, will appear on Club Day, Tuesday 17 February.

The NCC Events managing director, Andrew Whalley, is excited to see the stars bring new excitement to the show, and stated: “It’s fantastic to have such well-known personalities coming to our show and I am sure they will be a hit with visitors of every age.” He continued: “All of them have a passion for the outdoors and visitors to our event will see how a caravan, motorhome or tent can be the enabler to getting outside as a family, enjoying quality time together and being active.”
