EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2027: a guide for RV rental hosts
AirVenture is the Experimental Aircraft Association's annual membership convention, and EAA runs its own campground for it, Camp Scholler. (EAA camping guidelines) Below is what a host delivering a rental needs to know, from the event's own pages and the other public pages linked beside each fact.
Dates
Monday, July 26th to Sunday, August 1st, 2027, according to EAA's AirVenture page. Organizers do move their dates, so check their site before you hold yours.
Delivering a rental to Camp Scholler
- EAA does not arrange rentals: every rental is arranged independently, EAA partners with and endorses no individual or rental organization, and there are no on-site rental services. (EAA rentals page)
- Only EAA members may buy a Camp Scholler campsite, one site per member. (EAA camping guidelines)
- Your renter's camping has to start no later than the day you deliver: EAA does not accept a trailer before the date the member's camping starts. (EAA rentals page)
- Deliveries come in through the Camper Registration Main Entrance only, not another entrance and not Express Arrival. At Window #6 in the Camper Registration building, give your name or company, a phone number or email, your renter's name and EAA membership number, and when you expect to collect the unit. (EAA rentals page)
- You get a color-coded delivery ticket, for a basic site or a water and electric site, that takes you past security. Leave it in the unit where it can be seen from the road, then leave the campground. (EAA rentals page)
What the rig will face in Camp Scholler
- Camp Scholler is beside the convention grounds and takes tents and vehicles of all sizes, large RVs included. Sites with water and electric hookups are limited in number. (EAA Camp Scholler page)
- Generators may not run between 10:30 p.m. and 6:30 a.m., except in the designated 24-hour generator areas. (EAA camping guidelines)
- The campground is open from the last Friday in June through the Monday after AirVenture. A basic site is paid from the arrival date through that Monday, and checkout is before noon. (EAA camping guidelines)
Other camping for AirVenture
- Winnebago County also runs public AirVenture camping at Sunnyview. Its 2027 reservations open on January 4th, and its 2027 camping runs from Sunday, July 25th through Sunday, August 1st. Its page does not cover rental deliveries, so ask the county first. (Winnebago County, Camping)
How big it is
- EAA put 2026 attendance at approximately 734,000, and says more than 13,600 sites in aircraft and drive-in camping held more than 40,000 visitors. (EAA 2026 stats)
