Hype Bashes Begin: Toledo Walleye and Williams Brothers Lead

April 18, 2023

We get set to kick off our 2023 Toledo Jeep Fest Hype Bash schedule with two great events.

On Friday, April 21, the first TJF Hype Bash will be hosted by the Toledo Walleye at the Huntington Center. Toledo Jeep Fest fans can sit in the same section together by purchasing tickets at this link – fevo.me/jeep2023. Toledo Jeep Fest team members will be out in the concourse with info about the upcoming August 4-6 event.

On Saturday, April 22, Williams Brothers Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Dundee will host our second bash in Dundee, Michigan, 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. We will have car smashing, a live band, food trucks, a RC course and more.

What is a Hype Bash?

It’s like practice for our big event on Aug. 4-6. Hype Bashes are fun Jeep events held at sponsors and vendors facilities. Sponsors like Williams Brothers Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram, Monroe Superstore, Charlie’s Dodge Jeep Ram, Toledo Speedway and Michigan Technical Resource Park, as well as the Toledo Walleye and Toledo Mud Hens.

All Hype Bashes include Jeeps, information on the upcoming event, Jeep Fest gear for sale, and giveaway and raffle items from our Jeep vendors. Hype Bashes at the dealerships also include RTI Ramp & Balance Blocks Opportunities sponsored by the Glass City Crawlers, vendors, DJs and food trucks. There are usually small RC courses and a few games for the kids and sometimes car crushing opportunities.

Hype Bashes are pre-fun before the big fun on August 4-6. Hype Bashes are a great way for the Jeep community to get together and plan their summer trail adventures and for anybody who loves Jeeps to get a preview of the awesome vehicles that will probably be in our All-Jeep Parade on August 5.

Toledo Jeep Fest Event Registration Is Open for 2023!

January 11, 2023

Registration for the All-Jeep Parade, Outdoor Park-N-Shine and Glass City Center Exhibit events is open as of today today! Get your event ticket and free T-Shirt while tickets last.

All-Jeep Parade

TJF’s signature All-Jeep Parade will roll down the streets of Toledo from 10 a.m. to 12:30 pm. on Saturday, August 5. Participants in the parade will stage at a lot close to downtown during the morning hours, drive in the parade, and finally be parked (at no extra cost) in the 20-block downtown event footprint for the afternoon. Once parade Jeeps are parked (in free, centrally located spaces), participants are encouraged to circulate and experience the Vendor Midway, live music, food trucks and more.

Register for the All-Jeep Parade

Park-N-Shine

TJF’s Directions Credit Union Outdoor Park-N-Shine area is a special two-block designated area where 100+ participating Jeeps will be parked in the early morning on Saturday, August 5. This area is designed to help TJF attendees who wish to park and display their Jeep downtown, but DO NOT want to be in the parade (it can be a long day for kids in the parade, for example). Park-N-Shine Jeeps can NOT be in the All-Jeep Parade, and participating parade Jeeps can NOT get into the Park-N-Shine after the parade rolls at 10 a.m. because this two-block area has been filled with Jeeps since around 9 a.m.

Please purchase a ticket for the All-Jeep Parade OR the Park-N-Shine, but NOT both.

Register for the Park-N-Shine

Glass City Center Exhibit

Please understand that space is limited to 100 to 150 Jeeps, and subject to approval. The Indoor Glass City Center Exhibit is for select Jeeps only; those of historical value or that are a particularly rare model, customized and built rigs, etc. After registering for this exhibit, TJF staff will contact you via email within two weeks of submission to let you know if your Jeep is selected. All selected Jeeps will be secured inside the Exhibit Hall from Friday, August 4 until noon on Sunday, August 6 at 1 p.m. for public display.

Register for the Glass City Center Exhibit

For all events, your staging time and instructions will be delivered to your registration email on July 15.
