The RV life can often seem like a “world unto itself,” with its own language and protocols. That’s why immersing yourself in RV knowledge helps newcomers so much. You can get more out of your camping experience after soaking up RV lifestyle tips from professionals.

The RV Dealers Association of Alberta hosts an annual event that’s worth checking out — even if you’ve been RVing for decades. The weekend includes a safety inspection from certified technicians, meals and entertainment, plus a lineup of informative and fun workshops.

About the Venue

Attending an RV Event

The cost of attending the RV Learning Weekend really pays for itself thanks to the lot and inspection being included. But it’s also a great way to enjoy a weekend camping while also getting to know more about RV maintenance and new technologies.

The seminars on insurance and technical stuff may not sound quite as exciting as the bonfire — but it really pays to pick up RV lifestyle tips from professionals!
