CAMPER JUMBLE™, an area where campers can sell their preloved camping kit. No need to pre-book, pitches are free to holders of a Weekend Camping Pass. Simply inform the Gate Marshal upon arrival that you wish to set-up in the CAMPER JUMBLE™ zone, there you won’t have to move again until close of play Sunday at 4pm. So clear out your garages, workshops, garden sheds and lofts and bring along anything and everything camper-related. Make a few quid or go home with a bargain!
Always a popular attraction are the free-to-attend SEMINAR SESSIONS. Brought to you by both professional and amateur speakers, these informal 1 hour talks cover a wide range of subjects covering camping in all its many forms – whether in the UK or abroad.
Free-to-attend WORKSHOPS are another popular feature of events we hold at Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse. Spanning a wide range of subjects from navigation and bush mechanics, through to vehicle electrics and leisure battery building! Yes it’s varied!!
It’s back to the day of barter! A brand new attraction is the SELF-BUILD SWAP SHOP. Run from the trade stand of “The Camper Workshop” in the main grandstand, campers can bring along any unwanted items/off-cuts/spare parts and exchange them for items already on the stand that you might need for your own build.
Some of the best CATERING on the show circuit. Gone are the days when the only choice was ‘greasy burgers’, we have caterers providing tasty, wholesome food, something we’ve very proud of. We ensure we only use independent traders – so prices and products are competitive!
Some of the best display vehicles in the land can be found in the FIELD OF DREAMS™, a feature unique to our events. Owners are on hand to welcome you, showing their incredible vehicles with all kinds of handy advice on costing, converting and creating all sorts of camping vehicles.
