Supershow connects locals and travellers

Have your say

CARAVAN manufacturers and accessory suppliers are looking to capitalise on Queensland's love affair with the great outdoors.

The six-day Queensland Caravan, Camping and Touring Supershow opened in Brisbane on June 5 and more than 250 exhibitors and 1000 RVs are on display.

Many have launched never-before-seen models, accessories and technology to coincide with the state's peak caravanning season.

“With tens of thousands of caravanners and campers from the southern states visiting Queensland between May-August, the supershow perfectly connects local and travelling 'carafans'," Caravanning Queensland general manager Jason Plant said.

For the past two years the Sunshine State has chalked up the highest number of registered campervans, motorhomes, caravans and RV vehicles in the country.

It has also recorded the largest growth in domestic tourism in 2018 for caravan and camping-related travel.
