Jeep_® Event Registration is Open!

February 13, 2024

There are a lot of Toledo Jeep_® Fest activities that you can participate in on the weekend of August 2-4. Most of these activities are totally free like the Vendor Midway, Glass City Convention Center Jeep_® Exhibit and watching the amazing All-Jeep_® Parade.

However, you might want to participate in one of our Jeep_® events like the All-Jeep_® Parade, Park-N-Shine or Glass City Convention Center Exhibit. These events require registration. Here’s a description of the All-Jeep_® Parade.

All-Jeep_® Parade

Saturday, August 3, 10 a.m. – $55

Participants in the All-Jeep_® Parade will stage downtown during the morning, drive in the parade, and be parked in the 20-block downtown footprint (TJF staff direct parking from 10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.). Once parade Jeeps are parked (in free, centrally located spaces), participants can experience the Vendor Midway, live music, food trucks and much more.

You need only buy one ticket per Jeep_® (not per person). You may have as many people or animals as will safely fit in your Jeep_®.
If you purchase an All-Jeep_® Parade ticket you cannot take part in the Park-N-Shine or Glass City Convention Center Exhibit. Jeeps cannot participate in multiple activities, and therefore drivers must pick only one of these three popular options.
Each All-Jeep_® Parade ticket comes with a swag bag and an exclusive participant T-shirt.
