Caravan Salon Düsseldorf is an event that will be held for the 55th time this year. It is the largest event of its kind in the world! In one place you will be able to see the offer of producers and distributors of motorhomes, caravans, accessories and tourist equipment.

The fair will start on Friday, August 26, but this day is dedicated to media representatives. For other guests, the event will be open from August 27 to September 4. It's 9 days, so everyone willing should find time to visit this unique caravanning town.

Tickets

For people who are going to the Caravan Salon this year, two pieces of information may be particularly important. First of all, it's best to buy tickets online. Online tickets are valid for two days - you can enter and leave any number of times. Besides, they are cheaper. A regular ticket costs EUR 14, concessions EUR 10, and a ticket for children aged 6-12 - EUR 6.

A stay for motorhomes

The second important thing is the possibility of staying overnight at the fair in your own caravan or motorhome. The organizer has prepared 3,500 spaces in the P1 car park, some of which have access to electricity. There are also showers, access to fresh water and the possibility of disposing of sewage. The cost of the stay is 18 euros (without electricity) and 25 euros (with electricity) per night.

But be careful! It is also best to book a car park on-line. There is a risk that there will be no more vacancies during the event.

Drive

People going to Düsseldorf should know that although the city itself has an environmental zone, the exhibition center is already outside it, so a sticker confirming the emissions class will not be necessary. The prerequisite, however, is the selection of appropriate roads, e.g. the A44 motorway. To reach the Düsseldorf-Messe trade fair center, take exit 29.

The booking system and ticket shop at the same time are available at www.caravan-salon.de .

Travel reports
ANDORA 2009
We can choose the road along the Spanish coast - that is, another sunbathing on quite crowded beaches in this area, or just or, a drive through Andorra. We do not think for a long time because we already know the coast a bit, and we have never been to Andorra, and the weather is not very suitable for sunbathing today. It is quite cloudy and stormy, and apart from nature and mountains, Andorra also tempts with prices of fuel, camping and other products. We haven't ventured so deep into Spain yet - and the weather in the mountains seems to be better. Yes it was definitely a good idea. There were no problems with entering Andorra from Spain - they looked at the passports and asked for nothing. Abroad, you can see the middle lane of the road, which is intended for two-way traffic - red or green light is on, depending on the traffic. There is also a gas station nearby, heavily crowded - I wonder why. And nearby - as with almost everything in this small country - there is a shopping center where you can spend some time browsing between the shelves. A few kilometers away is the capital of Andorra, La Vella. We stop at the McDonald's car park, which offers free parking for meals and relaxation. We eat and go on a tour of a small town. We walk around the area for a while, but there are not many monuments here, but you can get acquainted with the local architecture. Andorra is a small country, but so much has to offer. Monuments, maybe not necessarily, because we didn't notice anything special, but these mountains are wonderful. Wherever we look, there is a peak - a paradise for our eyes. As we are close to everything, we are going to look around the hills a bit. We stay overnight at the campground and at the foot of the mountains. The campsite is located on the main road - but the traffic in this country, far from the border, is so great that we do not even notice it. The service was nice and the price - a fraction of what in Spain. Tomorrow, maybe we will go to a summit….
