Sustainable, digital, convenient – positive conclusion of the Reise + Camping Essen fair

+++ This text has been automatically translated from German +++

After a three-year pandemic break, Messe Essen was once again the meeting place for campers and travel fans, campsites and manufacturers of vehicles and accessories from 22-26 February 2023. 85,000 visitors and about 750 exhibitors were reported by the fair organiser.

This means that the “pre-Corona level” was almost reached

92 % of the visitors were satisfied or completely satisfied with their visit to Reise + Camping, according to the trade fair organiser. This satisfaction is also reflected in the buying mood: according to Messe Essen, the visitors did not just come to look. Almost 50 % also visited Reise + Camping to buy or order something.

The defining trends at Reise + Camping included comfortable and sustainable camping

These go hand in hand with the further advance of digitalisation. Two examples: Campsites can acquire the ECOCAMPING award online (in German) in a digital, low-cost certification process. Motorhome fans can increasingly switch from a company office or home office to the “WoMo-Office”. For this purpose, motorhome manufacturers offer comfortable vehicles including a PC workstation.
