Dave Kelly – The 2026 Tampa RV Supershow
Tuesday, 13 January, 2026
Today, I get to talk with the organizer of one of the largest RV shows in America, which starts this week in Tampa, Fla. Dave Kelly is the executive director of the Florida RV Trade Association and the organization behind one of the most talked-about RV events in the country, the Tampa RV SuperShow. It opens today at the Tampa Fairgrounds and runs through Sunday. If you can’t make this one, there are five other shows planned around Florida this spring. Dave has been involved with the SuperShow for nearly four decades, and he offers a behind-the-scenes look at what makes this event such a draw for RVers, Workampers and people just beginning to explore the RV lifestyle. We talk about the sheer scale of the show, from the number of RVs on display to the thousands of attendees who come through the gates each year. Dave also explains why the SuperShow is such a valuable stop for people who are shopping seriously, including the opportunity to compare models, talk directly with dealers and manufacturers and even trade-in an RV on site. He shares what’s new this year, including hands-on towing education, expanded exhibitor space and entertainment designed to keep the experience fun and family friendly. If you’ve ever wondered whether an RV show is worth your time, Dave offers practical insights that can help you plan smarter and get more value out of the experience. It’s clear that the Tampa RV SuperShow is more than just a place to look at RVs. It’s an opportunity to learn, compare options and immerse yourself in the RV lifestyle, whether you’re a longtime RVer or just starting to explore the idea. If you’re planning to attend the Tampa RV SuperShow or any of the other Florida RV Trade Association events, Dave strongly recommends doing a little planning ahead of time. Interactive maps, show layouts and ticket options are all available online to help you make the most of your visit and avoid feeling overwhelmed once you arrive.
