Italy's Tourism Minister Gianmarco Mazzi stated at the Salone del camper exhibition in Parma that the government has allocated €32 million for the creation of camper and motorhome parking areas. The program has completed over 150 projects in 169 municipalities, creating 4,375 spaces.
The distribution across the country is: 28.5% in the north, 28.5% in the center, and 43% in the south and islands. Mazzi noted that this type of tourism helps decentralize flows and reduce seasonality. He also described the Salone del camper as the second most important exhibition in Europe after Germany, with 107,000 visitors and 310 exhibitors.
