THOUSANDS Flock to
“ Hershey Show,”“ America’ s Largest RV Show,”“ Pennsylvania Show,”“ the RV Show;” it’ s been called many names over the years. Officially known as“ Hershey- America’ s Largest RV Show,” it’ s been a highly anticipated annual event in the sweetest place on earth since moving from Harrisburg in 2005. Every year roadside billboards announce it, television ads and radio commercials provide the details, and it all culminates on the grounds of the Giant Center on S. R. 39 and Hersheypark Drive in Hershey, PA every September.
Produced by the Pennsylvania RV and Camping Association, headquartered in Camp Hill, the importance of America’ s Largest RV Show is not lost to a host of local businesses in and around the Harrisburg / Hershey region. With tens of thousands of interested attendees pouring into the area, restaurants, hotels, campgrounds and local retail shops all benefit from the influx of happy campers, not to mention Hersheypark and Chocolate World, right across the parking lot.
For five consecutive years, the paid attendance through the gate has set a new record; a total of 57,692 people enthusiastically entered into the 2016 show, the 18 th largest trade show in North America.
