Mornington Outdoor Living & Caravan Expo 2026: Turn It Into a Fun Peninsula Adventure Weekend

If you are looking for a fun excuse to get out and enjoy the Mornington Peninsula in March, this is a good one.

The Mornington Outdoor Living & Caravan Expo 2026 is happening from Friday 13 March to Sunday 15 March 2026 at Mornington Racecourse, with 10am to 4pm daily, plenty of free parking, and more than 120–130 exhibitors showcasing caravans, camper trailers, motorhomes, camping gear and outdoor living ideas.

But the best part is this is not just an event for people shopping for a van or camper. It is also a great reason to plan a full Peninsula day out. Think coffee, a browse through the expo, a relaxed lunch in Mornington, maybe a walk by the water, and if you are there on the Sunday, you can even roll it into a visit to the Mornington Racecourse Market, which runs on the second Sunday of the month.

What to Expect at the Mornington Caravan Expo

The Mornington Outdoor Living & Caravan Expo is set up as a practical and interesting day for anyone who loves travel, camping or just being outdoors.

Across the three days, visitors can expect to see:

• caravans and RVs

• camper trailers and motorhomes

• camping accessories

• outdoor living products

• exhibitor specials

• education and event-stage content

It is one of those events where even if you arrive “just for a look,” you usually leave with ideas for your next trip, your next upgrade, or your next weekend away.

Make a Day of It in Mornington

If you are heading to the expo, make the most of being in Mornington. Start with a coffee in town, spend a few hours at the racecourse, then head towards Main Street or the waterfront for lunch. After that, you could take a wander along the foreshore and enjoy the kind of easy coastal atmosphere that makes people love the Mornington Peninsula in the first place.

And if you are visiting on Sunday 15 March 2026, that lines up with the Mornington Racecourse Market, which is known for handmade, home-made, home-grown and Australian-designed goods, along with food vendors and live music. That makes Sunday especially appealing if you want that full “local weekend outing” feel.

Why This Is a Great March 2026 Peninsula Adventure

March is a really good time on the Mornington Peninsula.

The summer rush has eased, the weather is often still beautiful, and there is plenty happening across the region. That means events like the Mornington Outdoor Living & Caravan Expo are perfect for people who want a day out that feels active, social and a little bit adventurous without needing to over-plan it. The broader regional events calendar also shows March is packed with local experiences, making it a strong month to explore the Peninsula.
