On the Balearic and Canary Islands, more people are forced to live in motorhomes and caravans due to high rents and housing shortages.

Traveling by camper van offers the flexibility to change location on the day of the event based on weather conditions.

Four municipalities in the Baix Penedès region have begun creating a network of equipped parking areas for motorhomes. An investment of 54,000 euros has been allocated to adapt five-space sites with dumping stations for wastewater and water refill points, with a maximum stay of three days. The initiative aims to manage the growing influx of motorhome tourists and prevent their unauthorized parking in undesignated areas.
