Is anyone on here going to Jeep Week in OC Maryland? It's my 1st time going. Does anyone know if you can buy tickets there? I know the beach crawl is already sold out. Just looking to walk around and see the vendors.

I didn't even know about it, but I'll probably check it out since it's right down the street from me. If you're looking for other things to do with your jeep in the area you should get a surf fishing pass for Assateage Island which is south of OC, or for the Delaware State Park system which has miles of drive-on beaches just north of OCMD.

For anyone looking for more information, it is Monday 8-24 through Sunday 8-30 and the web address is ocjeepweek.com

Thanks! I just saw the information for it right after I posted my question regarding when it was. :D

When is it this year? I used to go to OC MD almost every year with the family when I was a kid! I have literally been there at LEAST 12-15 times, and my parents still go to Sun Fest at the end of September every year. I really love the board walk, and Seacrets is a great bar (though Purple Moose has some great live bands)! Ahhh......the memories. I didn't even know this event existed. If I can't make it this year, it will definitely be on my list for next year. :D

I just got back from vacation in chincoteague island a week ago and I've been to ocean city Maryland 3-4 times. We usually drive up to ocean city for a day while we vacation at chincoteague. I booked my vacation last year before I knew I was going to have a jeep and before I knew when OCMD jeep week was. :( I really really really really wanna make it a point to experience jeep week there. Maybe next year! I'll have to keep an eye out for dates. post pics please! For those of you who are going!!!

Funny ...we were just up in OC for vacation. I had my wife's rig (2007 Honda Odyssey). Once I saw all the Jeeps there and went over to Assiteague and saw them all airing down I was going nuts! Going to try to go back with my Jeep later this summer. People waved even though I was driving a minivan😀

I'll be in OC that week and had no idea this event was going on. We only had my wife's Grand Cherokee at the time I booked, but since I got my JKU we'll be taking that. I'm going to have to convince my wife and kids to check out some the the spectator events, since the beach crawl and some other stuff are sold out already. I just hope I can get passes the day we want to go.

I was just in OC, although didn't have my Wrangler with me. The five of us and all our beach gear had to take the minivan. (yeah yeah, boo hiss, I know)

I did see a ton of them and wished I had mine with me. Unfortunately we are 4 hours from there so I won't be stopping in for Jeep week.

Just be aware that OC has a wacky local ordinance that is often misinterpreted by the local 5-0. You must have a working door handle. this was put in because the tuners were welding their doors shut. Every once in a while a doorless Jeep gets hit with a ticket for not having a working door handle.

Would you happen to have any more information about that ordinance? I would love to know the specifics.

I was scheduled to go this year but had to cancel my hotel reservations about 2 weeks ago due to household finances. Maybe next year. I went last year and it is a good show. Take a CB radio if you go. Lots of Jeep chatter across the airwaves.

You definitely can buy tickets for the vendors there. By pure happenstance, we were on vacation last year in Bethany Beach, DE when I heard that Jeep Fest was going on. I think we went over Friday morning and checked out the vendors. And the Jeep parade getting into the venue was a hoot! Never have I seen SO many Jeeps in one place!
