“It’s been a great year with more than 14.2 million visitor nights spent in caravan or camping accommodation in NSW, making it one of the strongest years on record," Caravan & Camping Industry Association NSW CEO, Lyndel Gray said.
“It is clear from the latest industry data, released by Tourism Research Australia, along with what we hear from our own members, that families are loving a traditional Aussie caravan and camping getaway.
“Not only do NSW residents enjoy their caravan and camping holidays within the state, we are also seeing strong markets out of Queensland, Victoria and the ACT.
“Our member parks offer amenities which appeal to families including water slides and playgrounds, mini golf, cafes and restaurants, and kids clubs. There are also terrific cabins and safari style tents on site for families who prefer the added convenience of these options.
"Nationally, caravan and campervan registrations increased by over 5% last year to well over 580,000 - making caravan and camping the fastest growing vehicle registration type for six consecutive years."
The upcoming Caravan, Camping & Holiday Supershow, to be held from April 9 -17 at Rosehill Racecourse, is an excellent way to see all the latest products and experiences the industry has to offer.
“The Supershow is a fantastic place to compare products, see the latest innovations and get inspiration for your next caravan or camping holiday - there is nowhere else in NSW where you can see so much all in one place.
There are also prizes valued in excess of $30,000 on offer, including a Jayco Swift Outback Camper Trailer valued at more than $24,000.
The Supershow is the perfect place to bring the whole family during the upcoming NSW school holidays– with free kid’s movies, colouring in competitions with great prizes, face painting and jumping castles," Ms Gray said.
Onsite parking is FREE and there are FREE shuttle buses from Parramatta station and Parramatta wharf.
