Two days before a big show, the goal is simple: remove friction. If you can walk Novi with your limits already known, you can say yes with confidence or walk away clean.
The Detroit RV & Camping Show runs Jan 28 to Feb 1, 2026 in Novi. Weekday hours start at 1pm, and Saturday runs late, which makes it a solid after-work stop for Metro Detroit.
Before you go, download the free digital Detroit RV Show Prep Checklist so you can set your budget, must‑have features, and tow limits before you ever step on the floor, then bring it with you to the show. You can grab the checklist and see dates, hours, and what to expect on our Detroit RV Show page here as well: https://www.pricerightrv.com/rv-shows/detroit-rv-show-2026.
You can also use this checklist (print it or save it on your phone), then head to the show:
- Know your tow limits – Use the tow tool at https://www.pricerightrv.com/tow-guides and confirm payload from your door sticker before you fall in love with a floorplan.
- Decide your size ceiling – Know the max length you can store at home, the max height if you have a garage or low trees, and the max weight you are comfortable towing in Michigan crosswinds.
- Pick one trip type – Weekend loops, long weekends with friends, or full‑season stays. Lock this in before you get to Novi so you are comparing units for the same use case.
- Choose your layout non‑negotiables – Bunks, true queen, walk‑through bath, outdoor kitchen, or skip it for storage. Circle your non‑negotiables on the checklist so you are not talking yourself into the wrong floorplan at 8 pm.
