Registration is Open for 2026 TJF Events!

Toledo Jeep Fest event registration is now open for all 2026 events! Beginning today you can register for the All-Jeep Parade, Park-N-Shine and Indoor Exhibit for our Aug. 7-9 event. Toledo Jeep Fest is a free and family-friendly festival that includes a Vendor Midway, Jeep exhibits, food, entertainment and Kids Zone, but if you want to show off your Jeep we have these paid events.

Jeep Events: Parade, Shine or Exhibit

Our awesome All-Jeep Parade will be Saturday, Aug. 8 in downtown Toledo. The cost is $55 to enter the All-Jeep Parade. This includes a gift bag and one free T-Shirt, which is exclusive to event registrants. Don’t delay because prices will go up after July 4. We are improving our Owens Corning staging area every year with entertainment, food and beverage vendors so that you can get in early and tailgate before the parade actually kicks off.

If you would rather watch the parade, hit the Vendor Midway early or just tailgate, then you can enter the Park-N-Shine on Saturday, Aug. 8 in downtown Toledo. The cost is $45 to enter the Park-N-Shine. This includes a gift bag and one free T-Shirt, which is exclusive to event registrants and not for public sale. Don’t delay because prices will go up after July 4. Remember that the Park-N-Shine and the All-Jeep Parade stage at the same time so you don’t want to register for both these events.

Do you have a rare, historic or concept Jeep? You might want to register for the Indoor Exhibit in the Glass City Center, which runs from Aug. 7-9. The cost is $45 to enter the Indoor Exhibit. This includes a gift bag and one free T-Shirt, which is exclusive to event registrants. Don’t delay because prices will go up (to $50) after July 4. These Jeeps are approved by our Indoor Exhibit team. If you register and your Jeep does not qualify, we will suggest moving you to the All-Jeep Parade or Park-N-Shine.

Event Registration FAQ

Ticket Transfers: Did you register and then change your plans? We will be happy to transfer your event registration to a friend or other Jeep owner. Beware of people “selling” Jeep parade tickets online or on Facebook. Connect with [email protected] so that we can safely and securely amend your registration.

Year/Model: Why do we ask for the Year and Model of your Jeep? We want to know what Jeep you’re driving so that vendors, sponsors and organizers can better service and speak to your needs. If you register and then get a new Jeep – no worries – your event registration is for the Jeep owner/driver and is still valid.  

Jeep Groups: Want to register for an event and then roll with your friends? Indicate a Jeep Group when registering (for example, you could list: Glass City Crawlers, Henderson Family, Owens Corning Employee Group, Mid-Michigan Jeep Group, etc.), and we will stage you with your friends. Last minute addition? Meet near downtown Toledo prior to entering the staging area and then enter the staging area with your buddies.

Scan Codes: When you register for any of these events our TicketSignup system will produce a ticket receipt with details as well as a scan code. The scan code will allow that Jeep owner to enter the event. The same scan code is also used to redeem your T-shirt later at the Glass City Center. The T-Shirt/Gift Bag area is open all three days of TJF weekend so you can redeem your gear before the event if you wish. You can have the scan code open on your mobile device or you can have a printout of the scan code. Both work!

Tickets Per Jeep: Do I need to buy tickets for everyone in my Jeep? No. One Ticket = One Jeep. You may have as many people and animals as will safely fit in your Jeep. You only get one free T-shirt per registration, but you can buy as many additional T-shirts as you want during the registration process. These are not available for public sale; they are only available for purchase when you buy your Jeep event ticket. Don’t delay because prices will go up after July 4.

Have Fun!

Looking forward to helping you make new Jeep memories during August 7-9! Be respectful, helpful and courteous to your fellow Jeepers in the staging areas and on the Jeep parade route. Keep the music, banter and displays at a reasonable volume for all participants and spectators including our Senior and Junior Jeepers.

Editorial: Iconic Brand Lifts City

Toledo Jeep Fest “reminds us of the iconic status of the Jeep and it expresses our pride in being the community that makes it.”

Those words came from the editorial pages of today’s Blade, but on the weekend of Jeep Fest, it seems like they are on the lips of everyone in our region. The heart of Jeep beats here. If you haven’t already, make plans to come down this weekend and experience what all the excitement is about.  There are activities where you can learn about Jeep’s history and see firsthand the passion of Jeep enthusiasts. It’s a story that couldn’t have been told anywhere else.
