2019 Australian Caravan Show Calendar

One of the best ways to travel Australia is in the humble caravan. You can travel from state to state and see the unique and iconic sites that this country has to offer. Even better, there’s no airport lines, pricy hotel rooms or cramped plane seats – just you and the open road.

Imagine being able to pack up and go wherever you like, whenever you like. No hotels. No planes. Just you and your caravan (and whoever else comes with you).

If this sounds like your cup of tea, find your next local caravan show in our list below and make that dream a reality. We’ve found some of the best caravan and camping shows in every state. Mind you, we’re halfway through the year, so many more shows, dates and ticket prices are yet to be announced. So, if you don’t see one near you, it doesn’t mean there isn’t one coming!
