You may need to plan ahead if you intend attending this years Caravan Salon 2025 in Dusseldorf. That is because the event faces a parking crunch due to Ed Sheeran concerts
Caravan Salon 2025 is set for Düsseldorf, running from 5 to 7 September, and we plan to attend.
But a scheduling clash means early planning is essential for a smooth experience.
On the second weekend, major concerts will be held at MERKUR SPIEL-ARENA, near the exhibition grounds.
Ed Sheeran’s concerts will draw huge crowds alongside the motorhome industry’s biggest event.
This will increase traffic significantly around Düsseldorf’s exhibition area from Friday to Sunday.
Parking at Caravan Salon from 5 to 7 September is only allowed with a confirmed reservation.
Visitors without a pre-booked parking space may be denied access to official car parks.
To avoid frustration, all drivers should plan ahead and secure parking as early as possible.
Public transport is highly recommended for guests without reserved parking spots.
Extra trains, extended timetables, and special routes will run during the event weekend.
Expect possible delays leaving the venue in the afternoons and evenings.
The team behind Caravan Salon urges visitors plan ahead and allow extra travel time when departing.
Düsseldorf’s U78 and U79 lines, plus Bus 722, offer fast connections to the fairgrounds.
Travel time from Düsseldorf Central Station to the venue is around 15 minutes.
Free Park & Ride options are available around Düsseldorf and nearby cities.
From Park & Ride locations, continue via public transport using fare levels A, B, or C.
Plan ahead, check traffic, and confirm your parking to avoid last-minute headaches.
