The June edition of First Monday Trade Days — one of the largest outdoor flea markets and trade fairs in the United States — kicks off the last weekend of May, putting it squarely on top of Memorial Day 2026. That means tens of thousands of shoppers, collectors, and road-trippers will be converging on Van Zandt County at the same time. The smartest move you can make? Book your RV site at Canton I-20 RV Park before they fill up.
Located just minutes from downtown Canton with direct Interstate 20 access and zero stoplights between the park and the highway, Canton I-20 RV Park is the go-to RV park near First Monday Trade Days for travelers who want convenience, comfort, and a quiet night’s sleep after a long day of shopping.
First Monday Trade Days is not your average weekend market. Held on the grounds surrounding the Canton Civic Center, this legendary event draws vendors and buyers from across Texas and beyond. The June event — which opens the Thursday before the first Monday of June — overlaps with Memorial Day weekend in 2026, creating one of the busiest and most exciting Trade Days weekends of the year.
Here’s what to expect:
The key to enjoying Trade Days without the stress? A comfortable, well-located RV site you can return to each evening — and that’s exactly what Canton I-20 RV Park delivers.
When you’re spending your days walking miles of vendor rows at First Monday Trade Days, the last thing you want is a long, complicated drive back to your campsite. Canton I-20 RV Park puts you just minutes from the action — and the drive back is as easy as it gets.
The park sits directly on the I-20 South Access Road in Wills Point, TX, giving you seamless highway access without navigating surface streets or stoplights. Whether you’re coming from Dallas, Shreveport, or anywhere along the I-20 corridor, you’ll pull right in and pull right out.
Whether you’re rolling in with a Class A motorhome, a fifth wheel, or a travel trailer loaded with Trade Days finds, Canton I-20 RV Park has the space and hookups to handle it. The overflow parking area is especially popular with guests who bring extra trailers or tow vehicles — a common scenario for serious Trade Days shoppers hauling furniture, equipment, or large purchases.
Make the most of your Memorial Day weekend at First Monday Trade Days with this simple itinerary built around a stay at Canton I-20 RV Park.
Roll into Canton I-20 RV Park on Thursday afternoon. The contactless check-in process means you can arrive on your schedule without waiting for an office to open. Get your rig set up, connect to full hookups, and take a dip in the pool before the weekend rush begins. Thursday evening is a great time to drive into Canton, grab dinner at a local spot like The Buffalo Grill or Ochoa’s, and scout the Trade Days grounds before the crowds arrive.
Friday is the insider’s day at Trade Days. Vendors are fully set up, the crowds are manageable, and you’ll have first pick of the best finds. Head out early, walk the grounds at your own pace, and load up before the weekend shoppers arrive. Return to the park for a relaxed evening — fire up the grill, enjoy the covered patio area, or let your dogs stretch out in the unfenced dog park.
Saturday of Memorial Day weekend is the biggest day of the event. Expect large crowds, full vendor rows, and a festive atmosphere throughout Canton. Having your RV site just minutes away means you can take a midday break, drop off purchases, and head back refreshed. No hotel checkout pressure, no long drives — just easy in-and-out access via I-20.
Sunday gives you one more pass through the grounds before vendors begin packing up. Many shoppers score their best deals late Sunday as vendors prefer to sell rather than haul items back. Spend Sunday afternoon at the park — pool time, laundry, and a quiet evening before the holiday Monday.
Honor the holiday with a relaxed morning at the park. If you’re extending your stay, you’re already set up and comfortable. If you’re heading out, the direct I-20 access makes departure smooth and stress-free — no navigating through Canton traffic on a holiday weekend.
First Monday Trade Days is the main event, but Van Zandt County has plenty more to offer during your stay.
