Great!
I am an hour south of the loop, so to make the trip, I want to make sure they have stuff other than just dealerships selling rigs.

I would consider going, but we just bought our camper last august.
Thus, I want to see more about accessories and other things for camping than campers themselves.
Have you been before? Do you know if they have exhibitors with various accessories and other camping/RV gear?

I know this is a older post but We went this year and you are right every year seems that its more and more geared towards the watercraft...though the Rosemont RV Show at the Stephens Convention center this week starting on Wed the 18th going till Sunday the 22nd is always great, last year it was HUGE with a lot of rv's and vendors, we will be going this year again as we like to look at all the new rigs that are out. Also trying to get a buddy and his GF to buy one as well so its dual purposed lol.

We are only like 50 minutes from the McCormick Place.
Wish I could have had the opportunity to go.

We happened to be in town and had a chance to check it out.
We did look at the boats too. There were some amazing things packed into those boats. It's funny that most campers are small and well designed for space, but those boats are on a whole other level. They pack a ton of stuff into the small yachts. It was amazing to see.

Always seems the show is much more dedicated to the boating community. I see that they added sailing this year.
Where are you located?

Another great show is on the books!
Me and the wife stopped by yesterday. Really loved the variety of campers and MHs. I wish they had more accessories or vendors with goods. It seemed the boating crowd had a bunch of options and "add-ons".
What is everybodies favorite RV show?
