The dates for the 2011 Quartzsite Sports, Vacation & RV Show in Quartzsite, Ariz., have been pushed back to Jan. 22-30, according to a news release.
The tiny desert hamlet of Quartzsite bursts at the seams each
January when tens of thousands of RVs converge on Quartzsite for the
rock and mineral shows, swap meets and flea markets that take place
there each winter.
There is no charge for admission or parking at this event, which is
billed as “The Largest Consumer Attended RV Show in the U.S.” Last
year, attendance for the show was estimated at more than 100,000 with
more than 400 exhibits inside and around the 80,000-square-foot, fully
carpeted structure.
“If you’re looking for anything related to RVs, you’ll find it at
the RV show in Quartzsite,” says Kenny King, show promoter. There will
be several hundred new and used RVs on display in 2011 and over a dozen
service bays will be offering immediate installation, repairs and
service on many of the items that will be exhibited at the show.
In 2010 there were numerous tourism-related exhibits from the U.S.,
Canada, Mexico and Europe as well as representatives from dozens of the
nation’s finest RV resorts and campgrounds. In addition, there were
many “workamper” recruiters from national parks and private campgrounds
in attendance.
