RVING AT THE EVENT
There are no RV accommodations at the MetraPark Center where the event takes place. If you're looking to camp nearby, keep in mind that Billings snowy season lasts through February and March. That's why the Kamground of America in Billings doesn't open until April. However, the Billings Village RV Park offers a full slate of luxurious amenities at reasonable rates. Chief among the amenities are full hookups, full restrooms, and hot showers. You can even get your mail sent there.
WHERE TO STAY
For some charming and quiet relaxation, you can stay at the Crossings Bed and Breakfast, which is on the western outskirts of Billings on Route I-90. The property only has five rooms, however, so book early. The home-cooked breakfasts are legendary in the area, as well, so plan to eat well.
The Ledgestone Hotel in Billings says that it has suites that are 20% larger than suites at other properties. The hotel offers you a chance for an extended stay if you plan to explore the area after the conclusion of the Billings RV & Boat Show and Sale. The Ledgestone Hotel also provides military and veteran discounts.
HOW TO GET THERE
From all points east: Both Route 94 and Route 90 lead direct to Billings. You can follow them from places in Minnesota and North Dakota. Route 212 also connects to Route 90 to get to Billings.
From the south: Route 90 proceeds northwards into Montana from Wyoming. So do Route 310 and Route 89, the latter of which connects with Route 90 west of Billings.
From the north: Route 191 connects with Route 87 in Lewistown, and Route 87 continues to the south and eventually reaches Billings.
PARKING
MetraPark is now offering paid parking in the Premium Lot. The lot is located just north of the First Interstate Arena across the Bench Connector. A pedestrian tunnel beneath the road allows for safe crossing to the front doors of the arena. Besides providing quick access to the venue, this lot also features reserved spaces and will be the first to empty after any major event. The spaces tend to be large and accommodating to RVers attending the event.
You can purchase spaces on an event-by-event basis as a $10 upgrade to your ticket. These spaces will be first come, first served, but you will be guaranteed a space in the north lot when you arrive at MetraPark. After the event concludes, parking attendants will be present in the lot to assure that those vehicles are the first to exit the property. Free parking will continue as usual in all other lots. Event-specific single spaces may be purchased at the Box Office or online when purchasing tickets.
TICKETS & PRICING
Admission is free, so there are no tickets for the Billings RV & Boat Show and Sale.
