OC Jeep Week set to return to resort during Aug. 24-27

(Aug. 18, 2023) The Town of Ocean City and event promoter Brad Hoffman with Live Wire Media are preparing for the return on Aug. 24 of the resort’s marquee Jeep event.

OC Jeep Week 2023, set through Aug. 27, will feature hundreds of Jeeps from across the country participating in familiar events that have made the tourist attraction popular over the last decade.

“I’ve never been more excited to host our Jeep event. It is truly an uplifting experience for all who attend from the off-road and Jeep community,” Hoffman said in a news release. “People wait all year for this, kids bug their parents to say – when are we going to Jeep Fest? Their happiness is my happiness.”

The end of summer is always the time for Jeep owners and fans to come to Ocean City for the ultimate Jeep vacation.

People will come to ride on the sand during the sunrise beach crawl on Thursday, Aug. 24, which will begin this year at the inlet parking lot and head north toward 30th Street.

After that, drivers can take their Jeeps on a custom-made sand course, courtesy of Delmarva Jeep Events and title sponsor KICKER, on the beach at Somerset Street.

The release said the hub and nucleus of the event is the Roland E. Powell Convention Center at 40th Street, where Jeeps will line up for show and shine events on Thursday and Friday.

Also at the convention center, partner dealership i.g. Burton will be on site with all the newest makes and models of Jeeps. Attendees can take view and drive the vehicles.

Featured guest Patrick Parker, better known as Sgt. Push-up, will also be at the event. Parker has become famous for doing one million pushups
