Why Thousands are Going to Jeep Beach Jam This Year from May 14-18

Every year, thousands of Jeep owners flock to one of the country’s premier beach destinations for the annual event of the seasons.

Now in its fourth year of operations, Jeep Beach Jam is ready to welcome over 2,000 jeeps from across 17 states to Panama City Beach, Florida.

Held in celebration of the Jeep National Go Topless Day, Jeep Beach Jam offers up lots of things for attendees to take part in, and organizers are expecting the largest turnout yet. With an action-packed weekend on tap, you’re going to want to make this your destination May 14-18, 2019

One of the highlights for Jeep owners at Jeep Beach Jam is their off-road obstacle course. For 2019, the course has been completely redesigned to create a challenging but fun experience.

Some other highlights include a fun interactive Beach Krawl along the beaches of Panama City Beach and Off-Road Trail Excursions. These off-road excursions include exploring the sand dune trails and natural beauty of Northwest Florida while taking your Jeep off-road and through 4,000 acres of paradise. Enjoy our sugar-white playground of sand dunes as you ride along the Intercoastal. Space is limited so make sure to sign-up for the off-road excursion of your choice while registering for Jeep Beach Jam.

You’ll find a long list of vendors who will be showcasing their Jeep accessories in the Vendor Village. If you’re looking for the latest in suspension kits, fender flares or lighting, this is your chance to get them direct from the vendors. Best of all, many vendors donate parts to be raffled off throughout the week. Be sure to pick up your tickets for your favorite prizes. There are also vendor prizes for scavenger hunts and the annual Poker run. Finally, you can buy a ticket for a 50/50 raffle which runs for the entire week.

All these raffles or contests give Jeep Beach Jam the opportunity to give back. Giving is a core part of Jeep Beach Jam, something that has been done every year. All proceeds from the raffles and 50/50 draw are donated to the local charities that Jeep Beach Jam partners with. As the event has grown in attendance, so has the size of the donation they give back, now reaching nearly $20,000. This great initiative is just one of the reasons why Jeep Beach Jam is an important part of the national Jeep community.

Jeep Beach Jam is on deck this year from May 14-18, 2019, which is a lot closer than it feels. Head over to their site to register now. Member of a Jeep owners club?
