Spain is becoming a hub for caravanning, with two major events for mobile travel enthusiasts in the coming months.
From April 17 to 19, Valencia will become the caravanning capital for three days. The second Caravaning 2026 exhibition will bring together manufacturers and dealers of motorhomes, campers, and caravans. Market growth is confirmed by statistics: sales of motorhomes and campers in February 2026 rose 84.3% compared to February 2025, while caravan registrations increased by 52.6%.
From June 26 to 28, the new camping and outdoor recreation exhibition ATURA will take place in Mont-roig del Camp (Tarragona). The city council has opened registration for the used goods section — a swap market for caravanning products. Visitors will be able to exchange equipment, accessories, and other gear.

From April 17 to 19, 2026, Valencia hosts the 18th used car fair and the 2nd caravanning exhibition. Over 2,000 vehicles from 42 brands are on display, including more than 100 motorhomes. The caravanning sector has grown by 80%, and interest in EVs rose by 27.7%.
The caravanning sector in Spain recorded peak activity during Easter week, with over 100,000 motorhomes, caravans, and campers carrying approximately 300,000 people on the roads. The average trip distance has decreased to 200–400 km due to rising fuel costs, while three used motorhomes are sold for every new one.

The Valencian Government has granted subsidies to 22 municipalities at risk of depopulation to create or upgrade motorhome service points. The total aid amounts to €542,035.
Economist José María Páez stated that placing a caravan on agricultural land for permanent residence is illegal, even if it has wheels or is not anchored. The law assesses not the type of structure but its use: if the caravan is used as a home (continuous living, connection to utilities), it is considered a violation. Offenders face fines up to €30,000 and forced removal. Registering the caravan as a residence does not legalize the situation.
The Spanish municipality of Husillos (Palencia) hosted a caravan meeting on June 19–21, organized by the town hall and the Cultural Caravaning Association of Galicia. The event brought together about thirty motorhomes and roughly a hundred participants, mostly from Galicia, as well as from Madrid, Valencia, and Castile and León. The program included a communal meal, board games, bingo, theater, a concert, a visit to the Memory Monolith, and a tour of the facsimile of the Orestes Sarcophagus. The gathering aimed to integrate travelers into village life and showcase local cultural and natural resources.

A family from Rota d'Imagna (Bergamo province) moved to Tenerife and lives in a motorhome while working remotely. Edwin (44) and Erika (41) with their five-year-old son Kevin left Italy in November 2023. Erika kept her job at a CAF office by switching to online work, and the family also manages apartment renovations in Italy. They set a weekly budget for expenses and plan to travel to Africa in October, replacing the motorhome with a converted bus.
The new motorhome area in Mosteiro, municipality of Pol (Galicia), was officially inaugurated this weekend. Around 130 motorhomes and 300 visitors from Galicia, Asturias, Ponferrada, and the Canary Islands attended. A commemorative plaque was unveiled, and local officials highlighted the area's role in promoting itinerant tourism and boosting the local economy.
