Ray was asking the question and got answers. I must add a caveat, though. Last year I did not see much Mil gear.  But... it's a new year!!  One may find that lost shaker of salt...

I’ve been going for many years  and its always been a good show tailgating in both the old and this new location always seem big too. Bring your wool coat it can be cold if your going to tailgate.I think I meet up with Jeep there last year.

Looks like they have all there tables spoken for but no idea if its worth the trip or not. Too bad the old Frostfest show went belly up because that was always the first of the year and a good show. Think they may have had a new show in Hampton Roads (MPARC?) on February 7th but don?t know how that went. Been a long winter so far and I am Jonesing for a fest!

Was there last year for the first time at that location. There was a very good selection of equipment. 3 hour drive?  I think so...

Vienna Wireless Society?s 50th WINTERFEST, Sunday, March 15, 2026 anyone been there? or know if it?s worth a three-hour drive? Was thinking of driving over but not been there before. Looks like they have all there tables spoken for but no idea if its worth the trip or not. Too bad the old Frostfest show went belly up because that was always the first of the year and a good show. Think they may have had a new show in Hampton Roads (MPARC?) on February 7th but don?t know how that went. Been a long winter so far and I am Jonesing for a fest!
