Florida Vanlife Gathering - February 2023
The first annual Florida Vanlife Gathering held at the Withlacoochee River Park in Dade City, Florida was totally awesome, with well over 300 vans gathered together for a weekend of fun.
Withlacoochee River Park in Dade City Florida proved to be a perfect location for this large gathering of vans, with extra room for plans to expand to over 500 vans next year at Vantopia 2024!
It was such a new and exciting experience witnessing such a large gathering of like-minded people, sharing their van designs and ideas with each other.
We toured some amazing DIY van designs including this one with a beautiful wood cabin feel.
Despite the cool weather, each evening consisted of a gathering of folks around Frisco Tâs Coachman van, enjoying a wide selection of refreshments while we shared van and travel stories.
A very well attended Urban Camping seminar by Scott from Go Small Live Large, presenting his unique ideas on the subject of camping on city streets.
