What’s a holiday without our four-legged friends coming along for the ride?
Many pet owners are now opting for a staycation closer to home so their pets can come too, and if you’re looking for your next adventure, we’ve got just the event for you.
The Motorhome and Caravan Show 2019 is coming to the NEC, Birmingham from 15th to 20th October.
The UK’s biggest leisure vehicle show offers a unique opportunity to see the largest display of motorhomes, caravans, campervans, trailer tents, caravan holiday homes and lodges and accessories all under one roof.
Whether you’re a newcomer to the leisure vehicle lifestyle, or a seasoned caravanner, this must-visit show set across 11 halls, offers endless inspiration and exclusive offers.
Discover the latest gadgets and innovations, browse and compare products, try out free towing, motorhome manoeuvring and campervan test drives, and get expert advice and tips.
They’ll also be an exciting line up of famous faces including Countryfile presenter Helen Skelton and super dogs Max, Paddy and Harry with their owner Kerry Irving. The Spaniel trio became an internet sensation in 2006 when Kerry started sharing their adventures. They’ll appear at the Freedom To Go live theatre in Hall 9 on Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th October, where Kerry will share the story of how he met Max and the benefits of getting outside following a car accident that left Kerry with chronic back and neck pain. Kerry started taking Max on regular walks around the Lake District which dramatically improved his physical and mental health.
Max is also the only therapy dog to be invited to attend the Queen’s garden party where they met the Queen and HRH The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. After meeting them at Buckingham Palace, Prince William and Kate Middleton invited Kerry and his spaniels to attend their recent royal visit to the Lake District.
Top chefs such as Bake Off’s Karen Wright, passionate outdoor chef Monica Rivron and campervan and cooking enthusiasts Chef Campers will also be at the show – a must for food-lovers!
