Jaarbeurs organises and facilitates various consumer fairs where thousands of visitors find inspiration, discover the latest trends and try out hobbies. Sustainability is alive in every industry: from vintage craft items to a tent made of recycled materials and from electric motorcycling to sustainable holidays. At the fairs organised by Jaarbeurs, we offer visitors inspiration to make sustainable choices.

During the Camping and Caravan Jaarbeurs since 2022, the Camping Sustainability Award has been presented with awards for the most sustainable camping product, camping site and innovation concept. Companies working on CO2 reduction, innovation, circularity and making a positive contribution to nature can nominate their product or concept.

At many of our exhibitions, visitors can follow a special 'sustainability route'. Exhibitors with innovative and sustainable iniatives can participate in this route. At the Camping & Caravan Jaarbeurs, for example, visitors can look for the most sustainable camping products, at KreaDoe they can tinker with sustainable materials and at the Vakantiebeurs they can discover sustainable travel.

To give sustainability extra attention on the exhibition floor, we offer special places where visitors can discover sustainable initiatives. For example, at KreaDoe there is a sustainability theatre and at Camping & Caravan Jaarbeurs visitors can take a look into the future with Camping of the Future plaza.

"In the sustainability theatre, visitors will be inspired by exhibitors tinkering with paper scraps, coffee grounds, fruit peels and elephant dung, among other things. We like to make our visitors aware that there are still many steps to take in the field of sustainable hobbying." Marleen Rompen, exhibition manager

The Jaarbeurs live app allows visitors to navigate around the event. The app features an interactive floor plan, exhibitors and the programme. With the Jaarbeurs Live app, we save over 300,000 paper maps on an annual basis. Sometimes the need among visitors for a paper floor plan remains. At the Camping & Caravan Jaarbeurs 2023, we donated the income from paper floor plans to Trees for All.
