The Wildwoods Convention Center will once again host the Spring Wildwood RV Show, bringing a three-day indoor showcase of recreational vehicles and camping essentials to the Jersey Shore. Scheduled for April 17 through April 19, 2026, the event marks its 10th year as a seasonal highlight for outdoor enthusiasts and families alike. Set along the iconic Wildwoods Boardwalk, the show will feature more than 100 RVs displayed both indoors and outdoors.

The event is designed to appeal to both experienced campers and newcomers looking to learn more about RV travel and ownership. The show runs Friday from noon to 7 p.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $15 for adults, while children under 10 can attend free. Tickets are available at the door and must be purchased with cash. Free parking is offered for all attendees.

Avalon Moves Forward with $600K Beach Replenishment Ahead of Summer

  Avalon officials have approved a $600,000 beach replenishment project to address significant erosion along the borough’s north-end shoreline ahead of the 2026 summer season. The plan calls for relocating approximately 63,000 cubic yards of sand from the south end of Avalon, where sand has accumulated, to areas that were heavily impacted by recent storms, including Hurricane Erin in 2025. Crews will begin work in mid-April using a process known as backpassing, which involves trucking sand along the beach from one area to another. To minimize disruption for residents and visitors, most of the work will take place overnight. The goal is to restore safe, usable beach space in time for Memorial Day weekend, a key period for tourism at the Jersey Shore. Avalon is taking a proactive, locally funded approach while many neighboring shore towns remain dependent on delayed federal assistance for similar erosion-control efforts. Borough officials say they will continue pursuing federal funding for larger, long-term beach protection projects, but in the meantime are prioritizing immediate action to maintain beach access and safeguard coastal infrastructure

Jersey Shore Locals Share Essential Etiquette Ahead of Busy 2026 Season

 

As New Jersey heads into the 2026 summer season, shore towns are preparing for a significant influx of visitors, fueled by strong rental demand and an early stretch of warm weather. Memorial Day weekend is expected to once again mark the unofficial start of the busy season, bringing families and tourists who play a vital role in supporting the local economy. While most visitors are welcomed and contribute positively to the shore’s atmosphere, local residents continue to raise concerns about a smaller group whose behavior can disrupt the experience. In response, communities are reinforcing a set of widely understood “unwritten rules” that promote respectful and safe conduct across beaches, boardwalks, and residential areas. Key expectations include keeping beach setups modest to avoid crowding and obstructing views, being mindful of personal space, and ensuring activities like games do not interfere with others. On the boardwalk, maintaining a smooth flow of foot traffic, adhering to teen curfews, and keeping noise levels under control are major priorities. Visitors are also reminded to respect neighborhoods by limiting late-night noise and recognizing that many properties are year-round homes. Parking and traffic management are major focus areas for 2026, with some towns introducing new cashless systems and higher rates to better handle congestion. Officials are urging visitors to follow parking rules carefully and remain patient on narrow local roads. In addition to etiquette, several firm regulations remain in place. Beach badges are required in most towns, smoking and vaping are banned on public beaches, and restrictions on alcohol, glass containers, and fires are strictly enforced. Environmental protections, such as staying off dunes and not feeding seagulls, are also emphasized. Overall, the message from shore communities is clear: with mutual respect, awareness, and adherence to both formal rules and local customs, the Jersey Shore can remain an enjoyable destination for residents and visitors alike during what is expected to be another busy summer. The broader message emphasizes that the Jersey Shore is both a cherished vacation spot and a year-round home for many. As the 2026 season approaches, locals hope that clear expectations will encourage all visitors to act considerately, ensuring a safe, enjoyable environment for everyone.
