THE biggest caravan and camping show in the southern hemisphere will open just in time for the touring season.

Victoria’s premier Caravan Camping and Touring Supershow attracts thousands of budding Australian tourists to the area to check out everything new and fantastic in the industry.

On show at the Caulfield Racecourse from March 10 to 15 will be a massive range of caravans, motorhomes, camper trailers, tents, camping gear and every accessory under the sun so travellers don’t have to leave luxury behind when they leave home.

"Every year more and more Australians are making the great leap, discovering how affordable and awesome touring Australia can be," a show spokesperson said.

"Whether you’re into weekends away or the big lap, there’ll be something at the show to get your pulse racing."

During the six-day event experts will conduct seminars on everything people need to know to hit the road smiling.

As usual, the grandstand will be packed to the rafters with tourism displays offering invaluable free advice and there will be loads of free 2011 Tourism & Caravan Park guides available.

Coxy and Franky J will be there to entertain the adults, with Roary the Racing Car on hand Saturday through Monday for the kids.

Visitors will also have a chance to win a Paramount caravan worth over $30,000.

Open from Thursday to Tuesday from 9:30am, parking will be free before 11am.

Admission will cost $17, with children under 15 free. Pensioners and Seniors Card holders will pay $13.

Wheelchair access and disabled parking will be available.
