Episode 08: Industry Insight: preview of the Caravan Salon Dusseldorf 2022
This week, I look ahead to the Caravan Salon Dusseldorf 2022, which opens to the trade and media this Friday, 26th August, and is then open to the public from Saturday 27th August through to Sunday 4th September.
This includes a quick interview with the show's director, Stefan Koschke (my first guest from outside the UK) who is pleased to tell us there are no covid restrictions this year for the 200,000 visitors that are expected over the 10 days of the show. Tickets are only available online.
With over 700 exhibitors from 34 countries, the Caravan Salon can probably justify its claim that this year's show is going to be bigger than ever - and the biggest RV show in the world.
There's only been a limited amount of details of some 2023 model making their debut at the Caravan Salon - such as the stunning Knaus Tourer CUV with full-length raising roof and on a Volkswagen T6.1 cab/chassis, and the Burstner Lyseo Gallery with pop-up alcove over the cab that was first seen as a concept last year and has now been confirmed as going into production. Hymer has a global debut of a new model scheduled for Thursday 25th August, so I look forward to seeing that.
It's going to be a great show, and I'll be there catching up with people in the industry, and all the news for a special Caravan Salon Dusseldorf episode next week. Bear with us, though, as the episode might be a day late.
