SALONE DEL CAMPER 2019

Parma: the camper driver lives sustainable

The most awaited event for travelers on wheels is back, this is the tenth appointment with Il Salone del Camper, an event for professionals and enthusiasts that is increasingly becoming a point of reference in Italy and which creates significant international connections. The Italian fair holds the second most important place in the world. There are important brands both in the national and international supply chain.
The Salone del Camper will take place, as usual, in September, from the 14th to the 22nd, at the Parma fairgrounds.

The focus of the exhibition is on the new proposals for camping vehicles, accessories and equipment, the technology and luxury that characterizes certain motorhomes, curtains, but not only this. Within the Salone, for some time now, there have also been the most interesting destinations for tourism in freedom, in the open air and in contact with nature, and some travel solutions and camper hire. All presented in the dedicated Routes & Destinations area. Visitors keen on traveling freely can take inspiration and organize every detail, thanks to the new fair formula that includes support and advice. Furthermore, food and wine tours can be organized thanks to the initiative "The roads of flavors", which highlights the culinary proposals of Italian excellence producers.

According to data processed by CNA Turismo e Commercio last year, 30 million tourists visited Italy between June and August. Of these, APC - Caravan Manufacturers Association tells us that more than 1.5 million have been tourists on board a camper. The interest in travel without constraints and through less frequented areas is growing from year to year, above all because the needs of the traveler are changing: they are looking for places immersed in nature and isolated, seeking calm and not chaos, to re-establish a deep contact with oneself and the world around.

In this 2019 edition, the Salone del Camper, we want to concentrate on offering maximum comfort to the camper, which turns out to be a figure attentive to nature and respectful of the environment. The camper does not dirty and does not damage, does not waste water and energy, finds a way to always be self-sufficient and respects others and nature that chooses as a pristine space for the holidays. Therefore, in Parma there will be more and more sustainable proposals, to travel on vehicles that consume less fuel, that pollute less, that use LED technologies and lithium batteries.

Inside the event there will also be an area dedicated to networking, "Travel, Meetings and Tales", to discuss with other campers or listen to travel stories, told by writers or those who experienced them firsthand.
