The Pennsylvania Campground Owners Association (PCOA) announced the addition of a second major RV show: the Lehigh Valley RV Show. This new partnership follows the ongoing success of the York RV Show, which has been a staple in the RV community for years. The Lehigh Valley RV Show will be held Jan. 9-11, 2026.
As part of PCOA’s commitment to enhancing the experience for campground owners, RV enthusiasts and outdoor lovers across the state, the addition of the Lehigh Valley RV Show offers even more opportunities for the association to connect with potential guests and industry partners, PCOA said in a release.
“We’re thrilled to be expanding our presence in the RV show circuit with the Lehigh Valley RV Show,” said Jason Vaughan, PCOA executive director. “The York RV Show has been an incredible success in bringing together campground owners and RV enthusiasts, and we’re excited to replicate that success with the Lehigh Valley event. This gives us the chance to reach an even broader audience of RVers, campers and outdoor adventurers across the region.”
A Growing Community of Outdoor Enthusiasts
The York RV Show, which PCOA purchased in the mid 1990s, has continually attracted thousands of attendees, including RV owners, prospective buyers and outdoor enthusiasts seeking campground information. The addition of the Lehigh Valley RV Show will allow the association to further expand its reach, fostering stronger connections between campgrounds, RV dealers and outdoor tourism advocates.
“The Lehigh Valley region is a great population center and has huge interests in camping & outdoor recreation, and we see this event as a natural next step for the PCOA,” said Vaughan. “The addition of this second show gives our members and RV dealers even more exposure and opportunities to showcase their campgrounds and RV dealers to a broader audience.”
What To Expect at the Lehigh Valley RV Show
Like the York RV Show, the Lehigh Valley RV Show will feature a wide array of RV models, camping products, outdoor gear and services from leading manufacturers and suppliers. Campground owners who participate will have the chance to meet with potential guests, promote their facilities and interact with industry professionals to discover the latest trends and opportunities in the RV and outdoor tourism market.
Additionally, attendees of the show will gain access to a wide variety of recreational vehicles at the first shows of the show season.
Looking Ahead
PCOA said its strategic expansion into the Lehigh Valley RV Show is just the beginning. The association remains committed to providing campground owners with invaluable marketing and networking opportunities, and the addition of this second RV show is a significant step forward in achieving that goal.
“We believe in the power of face-to-face connections,” said Vaughan. “The more we can engage with RV dealers, campgrounds and RVers and campers in person, the better we can serve our members and promote the wonderful camping experiences Pennsylvania has to offer. We are excited for the future and the continued growth of our shows.”
