Quartzsite Sports, Vacation & RV Show

What to know

The Quartzsite Sports, Vacation & RV Show is held each January at 700 S. Central Blvd in Quartzsite. The 2026 show ran January 17–25, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (3 p.m. on closing day). The 2027 show is set for January 15–23, with daily hours of 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.; the organizer notes it will open on a Friday and close on a Saturday for the first time.

Admission and parking. Entry is free, and so is parking on the show grounds. Areas next to the grounds can also be used for parking, but the organizer warns of deep, soft, sandy soil where vehicles can get stuck. RV parking is not provided; a Class B or similar small RV may fit. Limited handicap parking is first come, first served.

Pets. Dogs are allowed on a leash or carried, and the organizer advises keeping small pets close in the large crowds.

Staying overnight. The show does not offer camping. BLM dry camping lies adjacent to and just south of the grounds, where the La Posa Long Term Visitor Area sells $40 two-week and $180 season permits. For full hook-ups, the organizer points to Rice Ranch, directly across Central Blvd from the main entrance, and cautions that area campgrounds fill early because long-term guests have priority.
