The Camping and Caravanning Club, National Caravan Council and many other experts will also be on hand to offer friendly advice on everything from finding the perfect campsite and holiday park in the North West, to sourcing specialist insurance and finance packages.

Show Director Sam North said: “This year, more than ever, our research has shown how people are discovering the freedom and greater benefits that a caravan, motorhome or camping holiday offers - it’s about getting better value for money, going on an active holiday or just spending time as a family together in the great outdoors.  We’ve packed our January show with lots of fun attractions and informative features to inspire both novices and the experienced. To name but a few, there will be a farmer’s market and cookery theatre showcasing ‘recipes for the road’ and the best of the region’s produce;, advice from the Highways Agency;, talks on Worldwide Escapes by The Camping and Caravanning Club and a new ‘Best Parks’ feature to help you find where to enjoy your 2010 – all in all it will be a great day out for all the family
