NH Camping, RV Show Comes to Bedford this Weekend

BEDFORD, NH - Start planning this year’s camping adventure at the 44th NH Camping & RV Show at the NH Sportsplex in Bedford – the largest show of its kind in New Hampshire.

Hosted by the New Hampshire Campground Owners Association (NeHaCa), the NH Camping & RV Show runs from 1 to 8 p.m. on Friday, March 18; 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturday, March 19; and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday, March 20.

The NH Camping and RV Show features a large selection of campgrounds, RV dealers, camping equipment; camping rental units; and information on New Hampshire attractions, events, and activities– all in one location. There are more than 100 exhibitors in approximately 92,000 square feet of exhibition space in two buildings for visitors to explore.

"We have expanded our exhibitor list, giving campers an even greater selection of campgrounds, recreational vehicle dealers and other industry related businesses looking to assist in making the most memorable camping experiences possible.” said Jeremy Sprince, NeHaCa’s Executive Director and NH Camping and RV Show Manager. “Many exhibitors will also be offering special show prices.”

Those planning a camping getaway can meet and get information from over 50 campgrounds from New Hampshire and neighboring states. Visitor information on statewide attractions is available from the NH Department of Travel & Tourism, NH Fish & Game, White Mountain Attractions, Bear Rock Adventures and other exhibitors at the show.

Admission to the NH Camping & RV Show is $12 (cash only at the door) for adults and free for children 12 and under (accompanied by a paid adult). Tickets are available online at ucampnh.com. At the door, each attendee will receive $2.00 off their admission with a donation of two non-perishable food items for the New Hampshire Food Bank. Last year, NeHaCa collected 5,743 pounds of food to the New Hampshire Food Bank, and is looking towards increasing that amount this year.

Free parking is available off-site at Galaxy Way in Manchester, at the nearby Manchester-Boston Regional Airport. Continuous free shuttle buses will take visitors to and from the NH Sportsplex. There is no parking at the NH Sportsplex without an accessible parking placard/plate.
