The Austin Boat and Travel Trailer Show and the San Antonio Boat & Travel Trailer Show will return to Central Texas this January and February. These shows are a fun for the whole family and are expected to attract more than 20,000 outdoor enthusiasts in total.
New for 2017, each show will include a children’s activity area featuring kid-fishing, providing a boat-load of fun for the little ones. For boating enthusiasts, there will be unbeatable deals on wakeboard boats, cruisers, pontoons and fishing boats, among other watercraft. For those who prefer to keep their travel on the ground, vehicles such as fifth wheels, truck campers and toy haulers will be on display for an up close look (there will not be motor homes at these events, only fifth wheels, travel trailers, truck campers and toy haulers will be exhibited). This is the perfect opportunity for consumers to get an up-close look at a vast array of inventory all under one roof! Manufacturer representatives will be on-hand with expert advice for anyone trying to determine what options will best fit their needs. Boating accessories and related services will be also be showcased including boat lifts, deck builders, fishing rods and reels and push poles. In addition, marinas and campgrounds will be on-site to highlight their services.
Austin vendors include: Boat Town, Sail & Ski Center, South Austin Marine, Texas Malibu, The Ski Dock, Crestview RV, Camper Clinic II and many more! San Antonio vendors include: Boat Town, Lake LBJ Marineland, Kent Power Sports, Master Marine, Premier Yamaha, Pro-Line NewWater Boatworks, Sail & Ski Center, South Austin Marine, Woods Cycle Country, Outdoor Living RV and more coming soon!
“These events are timed perfectly for the start of the vacation-planning season, as families begin making their recreational and travel schedule for the coming year” says Jennifer McKinney, Marketing Manager for both shows.
