Inside the Tampa RV Supershow: Sixteen Years Strong and Showing Up Bigger Than Ever

In just one week, the gates to the Tampa RV Show will be open!

Industry Day kicks things off on Tuesday, followed by special days for seniors, veterans, and discounted tickets on specific days throughout the week. Be sure to pay for parking before you arrive and plan for at least two days — there’s simply too much to see, learn, and explore in one.

And when the sun goes down, don’t miss the after‑hours fun, including creator events with Charlie Grace Adventures & Nomadic Influence after hours. It’s going to be an unforgettable week of RV community, education, and adventure.

There’s nothing quite like the Tampa RV Supershow ..... the energy, the crowds, the rigs, the conversations, and the chance to meet the RV community face‑to‑face. This year, Learn to RV is showing up bigger than ever with boots on the ground, cameras in hand for the Podcast, and a front‑row seat to everything happening across the fairgrounds.

And if you’re looking for us, you’ll find our team in two places that mean a whole lot to us.

📍 Booth B125 —   at the RV Roofing Solutions x Learn to RV

This is where the action is for creators, conversations, and community. We’re partnering with RV Roofing Solutions at Booth B125, bringing together education, storytelling, and real‑world RV experience.

Here’s what you’ll find when you stop by:

• Learn to RV creator coverage and interviews

• Meet‑and‑greets with the Learn to RV team & other creators

• Step into a one‑on‑one conversation and learn how you can get involved with Learn to RV as a featured creator.

• Stop by & see why a maintenance‑free roofing system from RV Roofing Solutions changes everything for an RVer of ANY experience level. Yes. Even before you have a leak!

• An opportunity to chat about becoming an RV Roofing Solutions Installer

If you’ve followed our content, listened to the podcast, or connected with us online, this is your chance to say hello in person.

If you’re not able to make it to the Tampa SuperShow this year, you can still request an estimate for your RV roof. While the exclusive Tampa Show specials are only available on‑site, we always take care of our community.

As a veteran‑owned company, we proudly offer ongoing discounts for:

• Veterans, First Responders & Teachers

We also provide special savings for members of:

📍 Booth A105 — Our "Home" for 16 Years

Just a short walk away is Booth A105, the long‑standing RV Roofing Solutions booth — the one that’s been part of the Tampa RV Supershow for 16 years.

This booth is a piece of our history. It’s where thousands of RVers have learned:

• What’s really happening on their roof

• How to protect their investment

• Why quality materials and installation matter

• What a truly maintenance‑free roofing system actually means

It’s the booth that built trust, one conversation at a time — and it’s still going strong.

While you can get a quote at either of our booths, A105 is the place we’ve proudly called home for over a decade and a half. Stop by for one‑on‑one consultations, on‑site estimates, and our exclusive Tampa Show discount. You can also simply sign up for our mailing list to stay connected.

We’ll have daily prize drawings, special show‑only offers, and some incredible deals you won’t want to miss.

Skip the new rigs this year — and come protect the RV you already love with a maintenance‑free RV Roofing System from RV Roofing Solutions.

Opportunity for RV Technicians

Tuesday is Industry Day, and if you’re an RV technician looking to add additional income to your business, this is your moment to explore a new path.

Train with us in Florida and open the door to opportunities across the country. We prioritize quality over speed, and our technicians enjoy a more‑than‑fair payscale that reflects the skill and craftsmanship this work deserves.

If you’re ready to expand your services, travel, and grow your business with a system that puts integrity first, come talk to us on Industry Day.

Eating at the Show

If fair‑style food is your love language, the Tampa RV SuperShow will not disappoint. From classic corn dogs and giant pizza slices to fresh‑pressed Cuban sandwiches, the food vendors bring all the crowd‑pleasing favorites. You’ll find everything from quick snacks to full meals scattered throughout the fairgrounds, making it easy to refuel between rigs, seminars, and vendor halls.

Prices are typical for fair food, and most vendors take both cash and cards. Just keep an eye on those “refillable cup” deals, but some are only valid at the booth where you bought them.

Whether you’re grabbing something fast or treating yourself to a show‑day indulgence, there’s plenty to choose from as you explore the SuperShow.

Entertainment

The show is full of roaming entertainment.



Musicians, performers, &  sometimes even animals. It adds to the fun and energy of the event… unless clowns aren’t your thing, in which case, consider this your friendly warning.

The Tampa Supershow claims representation from every RV manufacturer

This means you can walk through the rigs in person — and that’s always better than any virtual tour. Step inside, open cabinets, sit on the furniture, stand in the shower, and really feel the space.

Plan to spend time inside the floor plans you’re seriously considering. Take plenty of pictures and videos so you can compare later, especially if you’re looking at multiple models. And if you’re thinking about buying, take full advantage of that two‑day ticket. Use day one to explore and gather information, and day two to review your notes, revisit your favorites, and make confident decisions.

Shopping for an RV? Here Are Some Smart Tips

• Know your must‑haves vs. nice‑to‑haves.

This keeps you focused when the options get overwhelming.

• Check storage — everywhere.

Inside cabinets, under beds, exterior bays. Storage can make or break a floor plan.

• Sit in the space like you live there.

Can you cook comfortably?

Work?

Relax?

Move around without bumping into each other?

• Test the bathroom.

Close the door. Stand in the shower. Make sure it’s functional for real life.

• Look underneath and behind things.

Construction quality matters. Check fit, finish, and how components are installed.

• Ask about weight, towing, and cargo capacity.

Make sure your current or future tow vehicle can safely handle the rig.

• Don’t let show pricing rush you.

Deals are great, but clarity is better. Take your time.

• Get everything in writing.

If you’re buying, make sure every promise, upgrade, and detail is documented.

• Walk away if you feel pressured.

A good deal will still be a good deal after you’ve had time to think.
