In Brief

The season opening at campsite Mainglück in Neustadt was combined with the Van Days festival over Easter weekend. ARD expert Friso Richter noted the variety of vehicles, and a report will air in the ARD Mediathek on April 24 and on Hessischer Rundfunk on April 28.

The season opening at the campsite Mainglück in Neustadt took place as part of the Van Days festival over the Easter weekend. The event attracted many camping and road trip enthusiasts.

ARD expert Friso Richter, who attended as a TV reporter, highlighted the diversity of vehicles on display — from full-size motorhomes to roof tents and cars with sleeping accommodations. "Campers are just nice people," he said, confirming his impression.

The festival featured a pizzeria that sold over 200 pizzas on Friday alone, as well as an Easter bonfire and a live music concert. A report on the event will be available in the ARD Mediathek from April 24 and will air on Hessischer Rundfunk on April 28.
