Caravan clubs are groups of people who share a common interest in caravans and the lifestyle. Caravan clubs have been in existence for decades as non-profit organizations organized by enthusiasts

Traditional caravan clubs host gatherings for members and non-members. Caravans of all shapes and sizes are displayed to the public or parked in any location with games and events for the enjoyment of those present. Traditional caravan clubs may also sponsor benefits such as publications that contain photographs, services, vehicles for sale or rent, and caravan advice. Other events include cruising, shows, and community service activities.

A number of online caravan clubs have also been established. These are online communities with a large number of members who also share a common interest for caravans. These online communities are free for all, thereby gaining a large number of followers and enthusiasts compared to a single traditional caravan club. Online caravan clubs provide forums, content databases of vehicles and the like, photo sharing, announcement of events, and other services pertaining to the lifestyle they support.
