The Pennsylvania Recreation Vehicle and Camping Association (PRVCA) reports 47,879 people attended the 55th Annual America’s Largest RV Show, Sept. 11-15, at the Giant Center in Hershey, Pennsylvania. A more than 5% increase over 2023, which had 45,535 attendees.
“The beautiful weather made it a fantastic week for consumers to explore the RVs, products and accessories,” said Heather Leach, PRVCA executive director. “We received positive comments from both exhibitors and attendees. While sales are more difficult in this economy, many RV dealers and booth vendors reported increases over last year’s numbers.”
America’s Largest RV Show, one of just two manufacturer shows in the country, offered 1,500 RVs on display from 40 manufacturers. From the small pop-up campers and travel trailers to the large fifth wheels and Class A motorhomes, the show had something for every RVer. All the RVs displayed featured the 2025 model year with the newest designs, layout and technology.
Nearly 200 booth vendors offered products, accessories and services for RVers. There was also a wealth of information on campground and vacation destinations.
The seminars were very popular this year. Topics included tips on buying an RV, maintenance, safety, travel, exploring Alaska and the national parks; full-timing, dry camping, RVing in retirement, maintenance, electricity, safety and more.
Many digital content creators were on hand for meet and greet sessions. Consumers had the opportunity to meet social media influencers Thursday – Saturday and ask questions or get their autograph.
Forest River and Keystone RV Center sponsored the RV giveaway. Gina Faulkner of Austin, Texas, was the winner of a 2025 Flagstaff OTG Tent Camper. Faulkner will pick up the new RV, worth more than $9K, at Keystone RV Center in Greencastle, Pennsylvania.
The show also featured a new product giveaway this year. Isotherm by Indel Webasto Marine gave away a CRUISE 226L Refrigerator/Freezer; Hershey Road Campground gave away a $1,700 campground stay and a gift basket; and Blu Technology gave away a $500 Adventure Series RV Water Filtration System.
