Australian manufacturer Bruder, known for its extreme off-road campers, has announced the ADX-18 model. It is expected to be the most affordable camper in the lineup, aimed at those who camp off the beaten path. Technical details and pricing have not been released, but the camper is estimated to be around 6 meters long. The model is likely to be showcased at the Caravan Salon in Düsseldorf, running from August 28 to September 6.

An Australian couple with no prior building experience constructed an eight-meter-long tiny house on wheels, relying on YouTube videos. The construction took nine months and cost 130,000 Australian dollars, a fraction of the price of a conventional home in the country. The house includes a veranda, solar panels, and a rainwater collection system. The couple rents land from a farmer, and both Australia and Switzerland have legal hurdles for placing such homes.

Overnight stays for self-contained recreational vehicles are set to return to a Sunshine Coast sportsground under a six-month trial. Beerwah Sportsground’s short-term camping facility permanently closed in May 2023 after the volunteer-run management committee dissolved. The trial will allow up to 12 sites for motorhomes and caravans equipped with their own toilets, showers and power. A council spokesperson said the trial followed strong support from the local business community, with fees intended to be competitive with similar facilities.

Organizers of the Mundi Mundi Bash near Broken Hill opened the gates for free entry on the final day after weather improved. Heavy rain had made parts of the camping area unusable, preventing thousands of ticket holders from attending. Founder Greg Donovan said about 75 mm of rain fell over 11 days, a third of Broken Hill's annual average. Around 10,000 attendees showed up, compared to the expected 15,000.
