Does anyone know if there is a website that tracks the "when" & "where" RV shows across the country?

Go to RV Shows enter the month and year. It will provide the information you are looking for.

Thanks Gary - this is what I was looking for. I wonder if the shows have to register or if the website administrators track it themselves. It's interesting that the one show that I do know of, because it's in my own city, is not listed.

If you know who produces the show, they usually have a web site advertising all the shows they produce. Some sites try to keep up with all the shows, but this information may not be considered a revenue producing activity.

Here's another site that lists shows. The Columbus, OH rv show doesn't come up on rvnet's site search.

And even this site doesn't have it all. There's a boat & rv show at the Ohio State Fairgrounds this weekend that didn't show up on either website. Looks like no site gets 'em all.

One can also go to the RVIA and see the RV shows this organization sponsors.

I saw on a television commercial last night that there is an RV show in San Antonio TX this coming weekend (January 6th) at the Convention Center.

Yep, but Ancira RV (Winnebago, Tiffin, American Dream, etc.) and Explore USA pulled out several years ago and do they own thing at their locations. Quite a few suppliers also do not attend anymore.

Understand it was supposedly because of insurance cost of getting rigs there and back, labor for same, etc.

However, having said that, we'll be down there Friday night. 'Never know-------

Best,

I agree it is not that great of a show. We went a few years ago because we took some rookie RV friends looking to buy their first new RV. We won't be going this year because we are perfectly happy with what we have. The Dallas and Fort Worth shows are much better than what San Antonio puts on.

We go to the Annual Detroit, Michigan show in Novi, Michigan. A giant of a show.
This year it will be Feb. 14-18.

Even though our Jayco Eagle is a 2007 model we still love going through the various RV's to see what's new.

Going to trade shows is great fun, especially if you are not real serious about buying. No pressure.

Been to the Harrisburg/Hershey show twice & the Annapolis Powerboat Show lots of times. Shows are really fun when you don't see anything that you would rather have, that you might be able to afford.

Shows are vital if you are in the seriously 'looking' mode trying to narrow down to the final choices.
