Overland Expo East 2017
- Thread starter Barton Fink
- Start date
I know the tickets aren't for sale yet but is anyone already planned vacation for Expo East this year? I just wrote in the calendar for the expo. This will be the first time I will be able to go in three years due to my job. I am pretty excited about it.
Yessir, the fam and and I are driving 10 hrs for this! Cannot wait, are you camping on the grounds and doing the whole experience?

Yes I plan to camp the entire time and do the full experience! I want to do the classes also!
Were also first timers and I'm on the fence about doing the whole experience. The $4xx price tag is a little rough

This will be my 2nd year going last year I just stayed the weekend but this year the wife told me we are doing the whole experience package so she can take some of the classes and I also want to! If your on the fence there is still a lot to do with out doing the experience package we stayed saterday and Sunday and stayed busy while we was there ether in the vender area or the free cooking demos or the video presentations

I wish we had something in Europe like this, but as far as I know we don't :P
I always enjoy the expo vids though :). Everybody who goes there, enjoy!

I was thinking that you got a discount on entry but you still had to pay about $50 to just get on the grounds then pay the Expo fees on top of that.

Would you recommend camping there? The only reason I am hesitant to purchase the complete experience is because my wife can't even drive my truck. Maybe i just need to look at the list of classes

Camping there is a blast. It's close packed with hundreds of rigs around you. A heads up if you use a ground tent, the field you stay in has sizeable grassy stalks sticking up.

If your a primitive camper yes if they do it like last year the camping was easy to get to it was right next to the vendor area and the biltmore estate had there food tent there but it was pricey they had clean portable toilets with that being said if you don't want to camp there is a hotel on the biltmore estate don't know the prices or how it would work with the full package but it might be something to look into me and my wife and dog will be camp from thurs-Sunday I've been looking forward to it sense we left last year camping adds another whole element by just meeting and camping with everyone that's there
