CARAVAN and camping shows in NSW are in line for a shake-up, it has
been revealed.
The state's Caravan and Camping Industry Association (CCIA) has decided to
take a closer look at the events, which attract tens of thousands of
enthusiasts every year.
This follows a 10 percent rise in visitor numbers at the recent Penrith
Caravan, Camping and Holiday Expo.
CCIA chief executive Lyndel Gray said that close to 20,000 people attended
the show.
Each year, her association stages regional expos around NSW along with the
Caravan, Camping and Holiday Supershow at Rosehill Racecourse in Sydney,
the biggest caravan and camping event in NSW.
"Next year we will make some changes to the format and length of our
events," Ms Gray said.
"We will introduce an additional show day to our Newcastle and Penrith
expos and reduce the length of the Supershow to six days."
The schedule of next year's events is:
• Newcastle Expo - February 9 to February 12.
• Rosehill Supershow - April 25 to April 30.
• Penrith Expo - September 7 to September 10.
CCIA's next regional show will take place in Batemans Bay, with the South
Coast Caravan, Camping and Holiday Expo at Mackay Park from November 4 to
November 6, 2016.
