The 19th Croatian Camping Congress, organized by the Croatian Camping Union, is scheduled to take place from October 27 to 29, 2025, in Šibenik, Croatia.
The event will be held at Hotel Ivan, part of the Amadria Park/Solaris resort, and is expected to attract a wide range of stakeholders from across the camping and outdoor hospitality industries.
The Congress, established in 2007, has become the leading annual event for the Croatian camping sector, drawing over 4,400 attendees since its inception.
It serves as a platform for camping professionals, suppliers, public institutions, and international experts to exchange ideas and gain insights into current trends in both Croatian and European markets.
The event rotates through various locations in Croatia, alternating between coastal and inland regions.
The 2025 Congress will open on Monday, October 27, with an association members’ meeting at 5:00 p.m.
While there will be no official programming for non-members that day, all participants are welcome to join an informal networking evening after dinner.
The formal programme begins on Tuesday, October 28, at 9:00 a.m. and continues into the evening. The final day, Wednesday, October 29, will feature additional sessions until 12:30 p.m.
Beyond its educational focus, the Congress includes an exhibition area showcasing a wide range of camping products and services.
Exhibitors typically include manufacturers of mobile homes, glamping tents, and campsite equipment, as well as companies offering marketing, IT, and infrastructure services.
The event offers both indoor and outdoor exhibit spaces, allowing businesses to present everything from air conditioners and electric vehicles to barbecues and sports equipment.
Through presentations, workshops, and panel discussions, attendees can expect to learn about promotional tools, pricing strategies, quality standards, and guest expectations.
Topics often cover innovations such as glamping, mobile accommodations, water park integration, and service diversification.
For owners and operators in the glamping, RV, and caravan sectors, the Congress offers a unique opportunity to engage with key players, explore product innovations, and gain practical insights for adapting to shifting consumer demands across the European camping landscape.
