Salon des Véhicules de Loisirs (VDL) 2026

On April 29 at 8:00 PM, the Steinhaus cinema in Bautzen will screen the French tragicomedy «Bon Voyage – Bis hierher und noch weiter». 80-year-old Marie, suffering from a serious illness, lies to her family about an inheritance in Switzerland to conceal her planned euthanasia and embarks on a journey across France in an old motorhome. The trip includes her son Bruno, granddaughter Anna, and care worker Rudy. Director Enya Baroux's film combines themes of euthanasia and family relationships with comedic dialogue. Admission is 7 euros, doors open at 7:00 PM.

25 caravans illegally occupied the annex of the municipal stadium in Commenailles on April 17. The Bresse Jura Foot football club has had to relocate matches and training sessions, and local authorities have filed an injunction with the Besançon court.

A group of approximately 140 caravans, evicted from a parking lot in Périgny on April 15, has moved to an adjacent plot, freeing up the Chamber of Commerce and Industry land. The plot was intended for a major offshore racing hub project, and its temporary occupation caused issues for the local fishing port. The situation was resolved after Enedis installed a secure electrical connection for the encampment. Some occupants plan to leave the site on May 24, but the overall departure date for the entire group remains unclear.

A motorhome fire caused the closure of road RD4096 in the commune of Peyruis. The fire spread to a hedge and two other vehicles, requiring the intervention of approximately twenty firefighters.

A convoy of around 50 caravans temporarily blocked the exit of the A89 motorway in Lentilly on April 18th while attempting to access a closed rest area. The group forced entry but left the site due to non-functioning facilities at the designated transit parking area.

Motorhome owners in Saint-Malo report significant impact from rising fuel prices on their travel plans. A full tank for a motorhome now costs around 200 euros, forcing some to shorten vacations or alter routes.
