Biggest Ever Moreton Bay Expo

Outdoor enthusiasts will find everything they need for their next adventure holiday at the Moreton Bay Expo and this year promises to be the largest one yet.

An extensive range of caravans, camper trailers and boating, fishing and outdoor gear will be on display when the major shopping event returns to the Redcliffe Showgrounds from Friday, 18 February to Sunday, 20 February.

Australian Events director Bob Carroll said the annual event was a unique showcase of thousands of products to get people outdoors.

“From new cars, to 4x4s and every conceivable option for off-road motoring, we also have over 50 major companies with the very latest in camper trailers, caravans, and all the nifty bits and pieces to go with them,” Bob said.

“Over 170 exhibitors and thousands of products make this unique event the first on the annual must-do calendar.”

This year the event precinct has been extended to meet demand and exhibiting companies have expanded their displays.

Featured exhibitors include caravan and camper trailer manufacturer, Prime Campers Australia, personal watercraft dealership Brisbane Sea-Doo and Can-Am, 4x4 accessories megastore Opposite Lock, caravan dealership Caravan HQ, and many more to keep expo-goers busy during the three-day event.

Once again the expo will feature free daily entertainment. Ron ‘Kingbrown’ Wilson will be back to present Kingbrown Camp Oven Kitchen at three daily shows, where he will demonstrate how to make simple but delicious meals like lamb shanks and damper using camp ovens.

Owner and operator of 4WD Adventures and Training Australia, Michael Boyle, will also appear daily to share his love of the great outdoors with off-road demonstrations.

“The idea is to run expo participants through the basics of four-wheel driving on some man made obstacles,” Michael said.

“We tend to find most people don’t even know the basic things so it gives them a bit of an insight. They are shown techniques to recover from thick sand. They also learn what we call entry angle, ramp-over angle and exit angle, getting wheels off the ground, traction control, and electronic stability control and how that helps you when you’re off-road.”

Bob said he expected millions of dollars in sales would be transacted over the three days of the event and millions more in the following months.

The expo has attracted more than 40,000 patrons over the last two years.

Entry tickets are $15 for a single day and $18 for three days for adults, and $12 for a single day and $15 for three days for seniors. Children under 16 are free. For more event information and to get your tickets go to bayexpo.com.au
