WHETHER you're giving your trusty old caravan a makeover or you're in the market for new set of wheels, the NSW Caravan, Camping and Holiday Supershow is a must-visit destination in April.
With more than 300 exhibitors attending the six-day mega-event, there will be plenty of opportunities to pick up tips, check out what's new and speak to experts. Free seminars will run daily.
As well as having a look at new caravans, motor-homes, campervans, fifth-wheelers and trailers, there will be displays of tents, camping equipment and four-wheel-drive and touring accessories.
For those looking for inspiration for their next road trip, there will be representatives from caravan and holiday parks and tourism operators with suggestions on where to go.
For a little light refreshment and a barbie head to the Champagne Bar or XXXX Gold Bar. The Saxter Duo jazz band will play live each day from noon-3pm.
A free shuttle bus will run from Parramatta station and Parramatta wharf to the racecourse. There is free onsite parking.
It's a dog-friendly show, but dogs must be on a lead. When entering the indoor pavilion dogs must be carried at all times.
