There is no set area for anybody selling anything. You will just find stuff everywhere you look. And as Oilcanman said, you can't get through Hershey in one day. Also, if you see something, buy it then, because you will never get back to it later in the day, the place is so big. Have a great trip and happy shopping.

Opening day is Wednesday so plan on being there then. As noted above, it will take more than one day to do the entire show. Also, "Us Gas Guys" set up all over the show. You'll have to search us out. I am in C4T3-6 at light pole 34. There are 9000 vendors and over 7 miles of spaces, if you walk it all. One day will kill even a young man! Paul www.severngaspumps.com

Yes, Wednesday is the day. It's the best day for buying and selling in my opinion.

I would recommend buying a program.Last year a friend had a pedameter on and it said he walked 31 miles in the 6 days he was there.

I will be setting up Tuesday in the Orange field (OBH-1) which is to the right of the Giant Center if you are looking at it from the road...I wanted to share a pic of a really cool 1920's traffic lighthouse I will have for sale at the show. Make sure you stop by and say hello...Thanks..Shaun

Shaun that thing came out great! Can't wait to see it in person. I'll stop by on Tuesday.
Mainly focused on Oilzum, Jenney, Harris Oil items & original paint gas pumps.

hmm we used to go on Tuesday, they start letting people in vendors are spread out but you can find a bargain or two! It has been 9-10 yrs since we last went. Hardly ever stayed for Saturday, parking nuts, so many people! (I was the guy with a big green shop made wagon with wheelbarrow wheels, it had a spare, dry box underneath, spring loaded handle, chock block for a brake, caught all kinds of flack for starting the wagon craze)
