With more than 19,000 visitors expected over the three days, the show will feature over 400 exhibits including travel-destinations, accommodation, outdoor gear, 4×4 products and accessories, motor homes, caravans and trailers, camping equipment and adventure operators.
Something for everyone
There will also be a selection of popular and niche events happening over the three days with options for ardent travel enthusiasts, outdoor sports fanatics as well as the entire family.
For the more adventurous type there’s the Adventure Area where event goers can enjoy slacklining and abseiling, and, for the less hard-core visitor there’s the Travel and Taste Theatre featuring local cuisine, wine and beer; a Wine Village with samples and products to buy; and for the even mellower, a Chill Zone to have coffee and charge your phone.
