Preparations are in the works and registrations are coming in for the FMCA RV Club’s 101st International Convention and RV Expo – “Sunsets + Saguaros” – set to take place March 26-29, 2020, at the Pima County Fairgrounds in Tucson, Ariz.
The association, based in Cincinnati, Ohio, also has announced plans for the 102nd International Convention and RV Expo. Members will flock to the Lancaster Event Center from Aug. 26-29, 2020, in Lincoln, Neb. This will be the first international convention the FMCA has conducted in the state of Nebraska.
“We’re excited to be adding a new state to the list of those that have hosted an FMCA International Convention and RV Expo,” said Jon Walker, FMCA national president. “Nebraska will be the 34th state on the list. The Lancaster Event Center is a first-class facility that should meet our needs well.”
“The Lancaster Event Center is a nationally recognized facility that has five interconnected buildings set on 160 acres. That will give us plenty of room for RV parking, seminars, indoor and outdoor exhibits, and all of the other activities associated with an FMCA event,” said Doug Uhlenbrock, FMCA events director. “Plus, Lincoln is a vibrant capital city, and RV families and exhibitors will be able to explore all that it and the surrounding area have to offer.”
Registration for the Nebraska convention will begin on Feb. 26.
Looking beyond 2020, FMCA has set dates and locations for other upcoming events.
FMCA’s 103rd International Convention and RV Expo will take place at the Georgia National Fairgrounds and Agricenter in Perry, Ga., from March 10-13, 2021, and the 107th International Convention and RV Expo also is set for Perry, March 15-18, 2023.
In addition, FMCA has scheduled a trio of events for another destination that has proven popular with FMCA members: Cam-Plex Multi-Event Facilities in Gillette, Wyo., which has hosted two FMCA RV expos in recent years.
The future Cam-Plex dates are as follows: July 7-10, 2021, 104th International Convention and RV Expo; July 17-20, 2024, 110th International Convention and RV Expo; July 14-17, 2027, 116th International Convention and RV Expo.
More dates and locations will be added as plans progress.
