The Canadian Recreational Vehicle Association (CRVA) will host the Toronto Spring Camping and RV Show March 3-6 at The International Centre in Mississauga, Ontario.
CRVA and exhibiting dealers plan to celebrate the boom in the RV industry along with RV lifestyle enthusiasts who are expected to attend in near record numbers, the association stated.
“There is an obvious pent-up demand for consumers to attend events in person again, looking at our advance online ticket sales, which are up significantly leading up to our show vs. 2020,” CRVA Show Director Shannon O’Callaghan said. “It has been most challenging to manage Covid’s changing landscape over the past several months but we are extremely fortunate to have most mandates removed just yesterday by Ontario Health, which is just in time for our show.”
CRVA’s Toronto Spring Camping & RV Show will feature the latest 2022 RV models and provide education and lifestyle tips to new and veteran RVers.
“Our objective has always been to provide the best opportunity for our members to sell product through the success of their retailers while providing the best show experience as possible for our attendees” said Shane Devenish, CRVA president. “This year will certainly be special for us while we welcome back everyone again in person. It’s been a long two years, and to have the chance to get together with our partners and consumers to celebrate the boom in the Canadian RV and camping industry after what we all have experienced will feel much different and more valued than other years.”
The RV Show will feature:
- A “Camper Marketplace” whereby attendees can shop for parts & accessories and meet directly with over 75 campground operators to book their next destination.
- Consumers will learn about RVing from industry professionals during a series of daily seminars including holding tank treatment advice, hitching and towing hints from Andy Thomson, Canada’s “Hitch Guru,” Intro to Solar by Go Power, proper RV maintenance, what to look for when purchasing RV insurance by Wayfarer, and for those wishing to just learn there will be a seminar called “Introduction to the RV Lifestyle- RV 101” put on by CRVA.
- The show will give away a new 2022 Forest River Rockwood folding camper to one attendee courtesy of Aviva Insurance, Coleman camping gear, a custom Muskoka sports chair and chance to get a purchaser’s payments paid for a year (up to $5,000) sponsored by Wayfarer Insurance.
