The Caravan 2026 exhibition will be held at the Lahti Exhibition Centre on the last weekend of September. It is Finland's largest four-day specialised event for motorhomes, caravans and campervans, showcasing next season's models, equipment and services. Organisers note a rise in new user groups who use a motorhome, van or caravan as a base for trips, holidays, hobbies and events.

The Kaukkila family from Pori and the Laihinen couple made separate motorhome trips to northern Finland. The family of four (parents and children aged 13 and 4) spent two weeks in the North Calotte region, where the sun did not set. Both trips were affected by injuries: Kari Kaukkila was hit by a car at a pedestrian crossing in Pori in early June, breaking his collarbone, while his wife used crutches. The Laihinen couple also faced injuries. Despite this, both trips were successful.

The Caravan 2026 show will be held from 24 to 27 September 2026 at the Lahti Exhibition Centre. The four-day event will present next season's motorhomes, caravans and campervans, along with equipment and services. The theme is 'For All Roads'. Organisers are Eventum Lahti Oy and the Association of Motorhome Importers (MAT) ry. A Vanlife day will take place on Saturday 26 September, and DogFest on Sunday 27 September.
