RV Show prices

We have gone to several different shows at different venues. The cheapest being free, another was $6 parking and no entrance fee, the most expensive was $9 parking and $15 each to get in (plus $4 for soft drinks, $4 hot dogs, and $8 hamburgers). I look around at the RV's, but mostly like the accessories section with the different vendors.

The Tampa show was $10 at the door ($9 online) and came with a $6 parking fee.

I think 10-15 bucks admission is the norm. May be add'l fee for parking depending on where. We too will be going to the Syr show just to browse and perhaps get ideas. Just bought a new RV last year. Syr show is okay for around here. Be interesting to see if Meyer's will be there or not along w/ Wilken's as they are new players in Syr market. Meyer's seems to have a on going sale in shadows of Camping World. Then again CW, will do their "own" show at fairgrounds once weather turns nicer and snow melts. They do this couple times a year. No admin fees I think for these to dealers.

One going on this weekend in Richmond, $10 Good Sam Members get in for $5

Free shows are nice.
But when you pay admission it usually means the show will not be used as a babysitting/entertainment venue.

It is a good way to see what is available, especially accessories.

Next weekend in MA is the Springfield Camping show at the Big E. $10 per person with coupon and $5 parking

Been a long winter here in the New England and for us this is the first sigh of spring! :C

We have the "Rhode Island RV and Camping Show" coming up March 2,3,4th. It's $10 per person, $5.00 WITH A Good Sam card max 2 tickets with the discount. We like to make a night of it. Hit the show then go out to a restaurant for dinner. The show is in Providence RI.so it works nicely. Some of the RV's are almost as big as the state!!!!!!

We don't go to buy anything. We already have a Travel Trailer that we like very much and I've done a lot of Mods to it. We go just to look and it gives us something to do this time of year. I would never buy an RV at a show anyway. I want to take my time and be able to really look and discuss things and be very comfortable in buying since it's a large price tag. You can't really do that with hundreds of people milling about. Not to mention that while you're trying to make a "deal", little johnny just dropped his ice cream cone on the sofa and didn't tell anyone and little Mary caught her doll on the end of the counter and ripped the molding off. She then ran to the next camper you had your eye on with her little friends to do who knows what. No thanks! We go for the fun of going. When we're ready to buy our next camper, it will be at the dealership, one on one.
