It’s the biggest event in the caravan calendar with manufacturers and brands showcasing the latest equipment. Today was the day that tickets went on sale for International Caravan and Motorhome 2010, to be held at the NEC in Birmingham from the 12 – 17 October.
The previous event saw the historic launch of the Bailey Pegasus and the firm’s all-new Alu-Tech range – and this time there are a few big names with their own surprises.
Last years’ show attracted around 80,000 visitors who spent over £100million during the six days. With a recent rise in popularity for ‘staycations’, the event organisers are expecting an even bigger turnout this year.
Show Director Sam North said: “We saw an increase in younger families attending the show last year and we expect even more this year as the appeal of these types of holidays continue to grow”.
250 leading exhibitors have already been confirmed, with big name showcases from Swift, Bailey, Elddis, Lunar and Coachman expected. Sam North commented “We also have over thirty new exhibitors so it really is the only place to be if you’re thinking of buying a caravan, motorhome, holiday home or camping equipment ahead of your 2011 travels.”
Look out for several free new additions to this years programme including a new cookery theatre, farmers’ market, real ale bar and an expert talks theatre – where industry professionals will give advice and guidance on all things caravan related.
Advance ticket prices start from £14.95 – please visit the Caravan Show website to purchase tickets.
