Ticket Hotline number: 0871 230 1090 But what did you think of it?
Now in its third year, the award-winning International Caravan & Motorhome 2008 returns to the NEC Birmingham from 14 – 19 October. To keep up with a demand that saw nearly 70,000 visitors attend the show last year, the UK’s biggest caravan and motorhome event will move to new, larger halls at the NEC Birmingham, adding a further 10% floor space for visitors to explore.
As the definitive event for the industry, over 300 exhibitors will offer novices and enthusiasts the best choice of caravans, motorhomes, recreational vehicles, holiday homes, trailer tents, awnings and accessories - with great deals to suit every budget.
Considered by many manufacturers to be the perfect launch pad for all the 2009 launches, ahead of the new season, there is no better place to see brand new models, pick up a cracking deal, or simply feel inspired by the latest industry developments.
Due to popular demand, there’s a dedicated accessories hall, which will link to all show sections via specially designed walkways, offering visitors the chance to find everything needed for a holiday on the road. From essential cooking equipment and satellite navigation, to all weather clothing and maps, Hall 12 will have it all.
What’s more, representatives from The Caravan Club, The Camping and Caravanning Club and many other experts will be on hand to offer advice on everything from finding the perfect campsite, to sourcing specialist insurance and finance packages.
With children under 16 going free, International Caravan & Motorhome 2008 is a great day out for the whole family to enjoy, whether they’re seasoned caravanners or simply looking for a new holiday option.
