Honestly, nothing beats walking through an RV yourself—brochures and websites just can’t compare. RV shows let you poke around brand-new models, check out different layouts, and spot clever features you might never have considered.

You get to chat face-to-face with folks who know their stuff about towing, storage, or upgrades. It’s a rare chance to ask those burning questions and get real answers.

I’ve found these events can save you a ton of time (and cash) when choosing your next RV. You can actually compare designs side by side, sit in on practical seminars, and snag some useful accessories.

The top shows in 2026 pull together everything you could want for planning your next big adventure—whether you’re after a tiny camper or luxury motorhome.
