Gulf of America JeepFest

Welcome to the Gulf of America Jeep Fest, the premier destination for Jeep enthusiasts from across the continental United States. Held in the beautiful coastal setting of Gulf Shores, Alabama, our festival is dedicated to fellowship, fun, and fostering a strong sense of community.

Our four-day event is packed with excitement, camaraderie, and purpose. While we love everything Jeep, we are equally committed to giving back, proudly partnering with several non-profit organizations to support meaningful causes.

From Thursday through Sunday, we host a variety of activities designed to celebrate the Jeep lifestyle:

• Kickoff & Live Music: Join us for our opening day featuring packet pickups and an energetic kickoff party with live music from bands like The Velcro Pygmies.
• Show & Shine: Marvel at custom builds and classic rides during our official "Show & Shine" event across from The Hangout.
• Adventure & Competition: Test your skills and luck with our Scavenger Hunt, Poker Run, and Sound Competition.
• Entertainment: Experience the spectacle of our evening Light Show at OWA Parks and Recreation.
• Community & Connection: Explore the Vendor Village throughout the weekend and participate in our Sunday service to close out the event.
• Raffles & Awards: Don’t miss your chance to win big in our daily raffle drawings, and join us for the final trophy distributions and closing ceremonies.

Join Us

Whether you are here for the trails, the community, or the camaraderie, there is a place for you at the Gulf of America Jeep Fest.

The upcoming festival takes place from September 24 to September 27, 2026.
