Quartzsite RV Show
26th Annual Sports, Vacation and RV Show
Jan 17th thru 25th, 2009


Quartzsite RV Show Hits Quarter Century Mark!

Quartzsite, AZ - RVers are marking their calendars for the 2009 show schedule in Quartzsite. This tiny desert hamlet bursts at the seams each January when tens of thousands of RVs converge on Quartzsite for the huge rock & mineral shows, swap meets and flea markets that take place there each winter.

One of the largest and most popular venues is the Quartzsite Sports, Vacation & RV Show. Now in it's 25th year, this huge show takes place in the "BIG TENT", just 1/2 mile South of Interstate 10 on State Highway 95. The dates for the 25th Annual Quartzsite Sports, Vacation & RV Show are January 17th - 25th.

There is no charge for admission or parking at this spectacular event that is now billed as "The Largest Consumer Attended RV Show in the US". The attendance for the 2008 show was estimated at well over 150,000 with over 400 exhibits inside, and around, the 80,000 square foot, fully carpeted structure that included the "who's who" of the RV industry. Promoter Kenny King states, "If you're looking for anything related to RVs, you'll find it at the RV show in Quartzsite!" There will be several hundred new and used RV's on display in 2009 and over a dozen service bays will be offering immediate installation, repairs & service on many of the items that will be exhibited at the show.

In 2008 there were numerous tourism related exhibits from the USA, Canada, Mexico and Europe as well as representatives from dozens of the nations finest RV resorts and campgrounds. In addition, there were "workamper" recruiters from National Parks and private campgrounds. They even included Dollywood and Disney World! Show promoter King went on, "The number and diversity of exhibitors that you'll find at the Quartzsite RV Show will not be found at any other show of this type in the United States. Period!".

The 2009 show looks like it will be another big one with exhibit space selling at a record pace. For exhibitor information, photos, maps, directions and much more, visit www.quartzsitervshow.com or call 714-377-7940.
