Overland Expo East 2017

[grantwilson]

I've been kicking around the idea of going this year. So, from those who have been there...worth a 10 hour drive?

Looks like we'll be attending. Probably staying in a hotel as the wife isn't big on camping, so maybe this trip will help bring her closer to the idea of it lol.

My wife and I will most likely be attending at least one day of it. We do an annual hiking trip to the GSMNP around that time, so we will probably make a day out of it. Looking forward to it.

It's not that far for me.. I will be attending with a few other folks from Alabama. Can't wait. I missed it last year.

Ok, so I'm ready to pull the trigger on these tickets but the camping situation has me stalling.

It seems like it's very tight, anyone have experience from last year??

Tickets for East aren't available yet..

 

[MagnoliaOverland]

Where are you seeing tickets for sale? When I click the Tickets link it sends me to old expo west ticket link?

 

[RootedWanderers]

They aren't up for sale yet.

 

[Urban gorilla]

Lol they aren't up yet, I can see how my question would be misleading.

Just saying my mind is made up on the event, the only thing I'm iffy about is the On-site camping.

Totally going to this!
Would be coming from Houston, Texas, so that's a definite haul, but i assume, worth it.
The only X Factor in my plan is if i'm invited to be on the Board of Directors for the company i'm on, as i believe the annual Board trip/vacation is during the same time.

The camping is not what you might expect. It is tight. I would recommend heading to the side of the event without the vendors and groups and you might have a bit more space to spread out. You'll have to walk to the classes and the vendors, but it is not that far.

Def planning on being there this year!

Some of us will be there pretty early Thursday so we should be able to get a good spot.

Thanks man, sounds like a solid gameplan. Talked to my buddy and we're gonna do the camping. Can't Wait!

Are the tickets available for purchase?!

 

[Lifestyle Overland]

Looks like we may be there this year to represent Turtleback Trailers. Getting excited!

 

[Itacal]

To anyone who's gone before, how tight are the campsites? Do I need an RTT or is there room enough to set up a ground tent?
