To assist Canadian RV dealerships in optimizing their professional development budgets amidst shifting market conditions, the Recreation Vehicle Dealers Association (RVDA) of Canada has announced the buy one, get one (BOGO) registration incentive for the upcoming 2026 RV Dealers Convention/Expo.
Held at the Paris Las Vegas from Nov. 9-13, the annual convention represents the premier business and educational event dedicated exclusively to RV dealership success in North America. Through the BOGO program, Canadian dealerships registering delegates from the same rooftop location prior to the Aug. 31 early-bird deadline will receive a US$799 rebate for every second registrant following the event — effectively reducing per-delegate registration fees by 50%, RVDA of Canada said.
“Sending a leadership team to a national convention requires careful planning, but covering every track — from Fixed Ops to Sales — is where dealerships see the highest return on investment. By offering the BOGO rebate, our goal is to help dealer principals get full multi-departmental coverage on the convention floor without stretching their training budgets,” said Eleonore Hamm, president, RVDA of Canada.
“The RVDA convention offers Canadian dealers access to industry-leading education, practical business insights and a chance to network with experts and peers across North America. CRVA is proud to partner with RVDA of Canada on this buy one, get one offer, and we encourage Canadian dealers to take advantage of this opportunity,” said Shane Devenish, president, Canadian Recreational Vehicle Association (CRVA).
The multiday 2026 convention agenda is structured to address key operational challenges across every department:
- Executive Leadership & Strategy (Monday & Tuesday): High-level sessions covering economic forecasting, succession planning, brand building and consumer trends.
- Fixed Operations & Industry Governance (Wednesday): Targeted workshops focused on Repair Event Cycle Time (RECT) reduction, warranty administration, parts management and the RVDA of Canada Annual Meeting.
- Sales, F&I & Technology (Thursday): Advanced buyer psychology, modern closing techniques, lead conversion and hands-on Vendor Training +Plus workshops.
- Expo Floor (Wednesday & Thursday): Direct access to leading North American manufacturers, software developers and aftermarket suppliers.
The BOGO rebate applies directly to all registrations completed at the early-bird rate of US$799 before Aug. 31. Qualified rebates will be issued to participating rooftop dealerships post-convention.
