Heading to the NEC Motorhome & Campervan Show this October? Discover why a quick detour to Spartan Campers might be the highlight of your trip.
The Motorhome & Campervan Show returns to the NEC Birmingham this October, and if you’re planning a visit—whether for inspiration, entertainment, or to finally buy that dream van—you’re in for a weekend of wall-to-wall campers, caravans and gadgets. But if you’re coming all that way, let us share a little tip: Spartan Campers is just 15 minutes down the road… and it might just be your best stop of the day.
The NEC show is bursting with energy, shiny brochures, and long queues for coffee. You’ll see loads of vans—but at Spartan Campers, you can actually step inside over 50 real-life campervans that are in stock and ready to roll. From fully finished showroom models and production builds to custom conversion options tailored to your needs, our Coventry showroom offers a quieter, friendlier space to take it all in.
Here’s the plan:
Start your day soaking in the buzz of the show (full event details here), check out the celebrity speakers, browse the stands… then when your feet (or your patience) are starting to wear out, hop in the car and take a short drive over to Spartan HQ. We’re less than 15 minutes from the NEC—no satnav gymnastics needed.
And unlike the big show floor, our vans aren’t behind ropes or on rotating plinths. You can slide open the doors, sit on the rock ‘n’ roll bed, flick the kettle on, and imagine your next adventure properly. Whether you’re looking for a ready-to-drive camper, a van you want us to convert, or something totally custom—we’ve got something for everyone. All built by our passionate team of real campers.
We’re not trying to pull you away from the NEC—far from it. In fact, many of our customers visit both. But if you’re serious about buying a campervan, or you just want to experience what a real ownership journey could look like, visiting us gives you the time and headspace to explore without the hustle. Plus, our friendly team is always on hand to talk things through, no pressure, no nonsense.
What you’ll find at Spartan Campers:
-
Over 50 vans on site, from showroom-ready to in-progress builds
-
A wide selection of VW T5, T6, and T6.1 conversions
-
A passionate team who know their campers (because we live this life too)
-
Options for custom builds or converting your own van
-
No ticket needed, no queue, and the kettle’s always on
So if you’re attending the NEC Motorhome & Campervan Show this October, plan a little side trip and come say hello. With more space to browse, more vans to see, and a welcoming crew who genuinely care—we’re just down the road and always up for a chat about vans, adventures, or the best spot for a cuppa with a view.
You’ve already made the trip to Birmingham. Why not make it count?
While the NEC Motorhome & Campervan Show is packed with inspiration, don’t miss the chance to visit Spartan Campers while you’re in the area. Just 15 minutes from the NEC, our Coventry showroom is home to over 50 stunning vans and a team ready to help you find your perfect fit—without the fuss. Come for the campers, stay for the conversation, and leave one step closer to your next big adventure.
