Elmia - soon time for the big camping party of the year

Advertisement

Elmia Husvagn Husbil, the Nordic region's largest trade fair for mobile life, is often referred to as the campers' New Year's Eve. Last year, more than 36,000 people visited the fair, which is the big camping festival of the year. On 6 - 10 September it's time again, but unfortunately we won't be there this year. We'll still tell you what's happening - and remind you of some of the highlights from last year!

Elmia Caravan Motorhome 2017

Elmia Husvagn Husbil is the perfect place to check out camping vehicles and accessories while socialising with like-minded people. This year the fair opens on Wednesday 6 September and closes on Sunday 10 September.

New motorhomes and caravans

Of course, the show features many new motorhomes, caravans and accessories. Some of the most interesting novelties in 2016 were the smart and secure Tuscany motorhomes from the Swift Group and the large and luxurious Morelo Empire.

In addition, we checked out motorhomes for large families with children, received expert guidance among the caravans and listed smart camping gadgets. What exciting news will be presented this year remains to be seen!

Last year we fell in love with the motorhomes from Tuscany.
Morelo Empire
If you wanted something "a little" bigger you could go for a Morelo Empire.

Feast

In addition to the fair itself, there are the usual shrimp feast, dance evenings and Oktoberfest. Some of the things we remember best from Elmia 2016 are the Oktoberfest and ... the more unofficial one. the performance with Elvis. Nice memories if you say so!

Motorhome friends

Perhaps the most fun thing about Elmia is meeting all our motorhome friends. Last year we also met a whole bunch of eminent motorhome bloggers. Check out the picture and you'll understand!

So why don't we go this year?

Now that we have done so much "advertising" for Elmia Husbil Husvagn, you may wonder why we don't go ourselves then. Well, it is simply that we are going on a Mediterranean cruise that week, which is not so bad either.

In addition, I have absolutely no holiday left, so it would not have been possible to rearrange the schedule either. Maybe we'll be there next year! And if you go to Elmia - don't forget to tell us about all the exciting news and meetings!
