The Canadian Recreational Vehicle Association’s (CRVA) Toronto Spring Camping & RV Show kicks off Thursday and runs through Sunday. The event will be held at The International Centre in Mississauga, Ontario.
CRVA said numerous specials guests and speakers will appear to celebrate CRVA’s 50th anniversary.
CRVA Show Director Shannon O’Callaghan said, “As we mark the CRVA’s golden anniversary, we are excited to host an event that showcases the latest advancements and trends in the RV industry.”
This year’s Toronto Spring Camping and RV show features over 450 RVs spread across five expansive halls. The show includes a 15,000-square-foot marketplace, featuring a parts and accessories store hosted by 1000 Island RV and The Leisure Days Group. Consumers can connect with over 150 exhibitors.
CRVA and the RVDA of Canada will welcome Kampgrounds of America (KOA) President and CEO Toby O’Rourke as the keynote speaker at the exhibitor breakfast Friday.
“Toby has transformed the camping and outdoor hospitality industry,” CRVA said, “inspiring countless businesses and individuals along the way, and the Canadian RV industry is extremely grateful to have her appear during the event to present her insights to dealers and exhibitors.”
CRVA is bringing influencer “That RV Girl” Laura Romano from Traveland RV in British Columbia to highlight the show’s new RV models.
Other highlighted speakers include a live podcast by The RV Canucks, RVezy President and CEO Michael McNaught, a presentation from the YouTube group Camping with the Coles and a session led by FNAVanlife’s Frankie and Alex on their world travels as vanlifers.
“This year’s show is not just about celebrating the past,” O’Callaghan said. “It is about embracing the future of RVing and providing our attendees with the tools and knowledge to enhance their RV lifestyle.”
Aviva Insurance is the event’s title sponsor. CRVA noted Orbit Insurance, KOA and the Ontario Ford Dealers, the “Official Truck of the Show,” for their incredible support.
