Whether this is your first trip to one of the largest flea markets and trade fairs in the United States or you’re a seasoned Trade Days regular, where you park your RV makes all the difference. Canton I-20 RV Park sits just minutes from the Trade Days grounds with direct Interstate 20 access — no stoplights, no detours, no stress. This guide covers everything you need to know about planning your Trade Days RV stay, what to do while you’re in town, and why so many visitors make Canton I-20 RV Park their home base every single month.
First Monday Trade Days in Canton, Texas is held the Thursday through Sunday before the first Monday of each month — making May 7–10, 2026 this month’s event, with Mother’s Day falling on Sunday, May 10. That means this weekend is one of the most popular Trade Days of the year, combining the beloved flea market tradition with a Mother’s Day shopping and family outing all in one trip.
The event draws hundreds of thousands of visitors annually to Van Zandt County, filling the roads, restaurants, and campgrounds around Canton. Vendors sell everything from antiques and handmade crafts to livestock, tools, clothing, and collectibles across hundreds of acres of open-air market space. For RV travelers, the key is securing a site close enough to enjoy the event without the chaos of last-minute scrambling.
Canton I-20 RV Park is located at 24481 Interstate 20 S Access Rd, Wills Point, TX 75169 — just a short drive from the Trade Days grounds, with seamless I-20 access that lets you pull in and out without fighting a single stoplight. For Trade Days weekends, that kind of convenience is priceless.

The park’s contactless management model means you can book online, check in on your schedule, and manage your stay without waiting on an office to open — a huge plus when you’re arriving late after a long drive down I-20.
This year, Mother’s Day falls on Sunday, May 10 — the final day of the May Trade Days event. That makes this one of the most special Trade Days weekends of the year. Families are rolling in from across Texas and beyond to treat Mom to a day of browsing antiques, handmade jewelry, fresh-cut flowers, artisan goods, and one-of-a-kind finds that you simply can’t get at a mall.

It’s the kind of trip that turns a weekend errand into a real family memory.
