What to Expect at Myrtle Beach Jeep Jam 2026
The Proving Grounds is one of the weekend's central attractions, with an obstacle course and mud pit for participating Jeeps. A three-day Jeep registration includes unlimited obstacle course and mud pit runs, along with on-site Jeep parking for all three days.
Registered Jeep owners also receive two three-day admission wristbands, an event shirt, and a swag bag. Registration provides access to add-ons such as the Beach Crawl, so review the official ticket and registration information carefully to see what requires advance selection or an additional purchase.
Away from the course, you can explore the Vendor Village, which is scheduled to include more than 120 vendors. The event also features the Classic Collection, the Overland Experience, and the Very Important Jeeper experience.
Because this is a mud-focused Jeep event, it helps to plan for changing weather and ground conditions. Comfortable closed-toe shoes, sun protection, a light rain layer, and clothes that can handle dust or mud are sensible additions to your packing list.
If you are turning Jeep Jam into a longer fall getaway, browse Myrtle Beach condo options for extended stays. Extra nights give you more flexibility around registration, the Thursday Poker Run, and the early morning Beach Crawls.
Myrtle Beach Jeep Jam Schedule by Day
The Myrtle Beach Jeep Jam schedule extends beyond the primary event hours. Some activities begin early in the morning, while the Thursday Poker Run takes place before the official three-day weekend starts.
Thursday, October 29: Arrive Early for the Poker Run
The Poker Run is scheduled for 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM on Thursday, October 29. This is the day before the main Jeep Jam weekend begins.
If the Poker Run is part of your plans, arrange your stay so you can arrive at least one day early. Do not assume that a Friday arrival will let you participate.
Friday, October 30: Opening Day and Trunk-or-Treat
Friday starts with the Sunrise Beach Crawl from 6:00 AM to 8:00 AM. The main event and Proving Grounds are open from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
The afternoon continues with Jeepers Creepers Trunk-or-Treat from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Afterward, the official Kickoff Party at The Hangout is scheduled from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM.
With an early Beach Crawl and evening activities on the same day, Friday can be a long one. Pack what you need in advance and leave time to return to your rental to change or clean up before the kickoff party.
Saturday, October 31: Halloween at Jeep Jam
Saturday is Halloween, making it one of the most festive days of Myrtle Beach Halloween weekend 2026. The Sunrise Beach Crawl runs from 6:00 AM to 8:00 AM, followed by main event and Proving Grounds hours from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
The Show-N-Grime Jeep show takes place from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM. The Costume Contest is scheduled from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM, so bring your Halloween outfit if you want to join the celebration.
An official after party is scheduled from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM. Readers planning a full Halloween getaway can also explore this guide to Myrtle Beach Halloween 2026 family fun, while remembering to verify separate activity details before attending.
Sunday, November 1: Final Runs and Handyman Hal
The final Sunrise Beach Crawl is scheduled from 6:00 AM to 8:00 AM. Main event and Proving Grounds hours are 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Handyman Hal will hold a meet-and-greet from 11:30 AM to 3:00 PM. This is the only verified Sunday schedule item beyond the Beach Crawl and main event hours, so avoid relying on unofficial schedules that list additional programming.
Myrtle Beach Jeep Jam Where to Stay
A Jeep weekend works best when your group has room to recharge after a day at the obstacle course, mud pit, and Vendor Village. The following four Myrtle Beach homes sleep between six and eight guests, making them practical options for families or Jeep groups traveling together.
Parking is especially important when you are bringing a Jeep. Before reserving any property, review the listing rules and contact the property manager to confirm that the parking arrangements suit your vehicle count and needs. Availability changes, so check your dates directly rather than assuming a home is open for Jeep Jam weekend.
Oceanfront 2BR 2BA, Pools, Hot Tub, Epic Views
Oceanfront 2BR 2BA, Pools, Hot Tub, Epic Views has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and space for up to seven guests. Its confirmed amenities include an oceanfront setting, pools, and a hot tub, giving your group places to relax after a busy event day.
3BR Near Beach | Pool | 2 Private Outdoor Spaces
3BR Near Beach | Pool | 2 Private Outdoor Spaces sleeps eight guests across three bedrooms and has 2.5 bathrooms. A pool and two private outdoor spaces provide options for unwinding between scheduled Jeep Jam activities.
Phil's Perch 2x Covered Patios By Beach Star
Phil's Perch 2x Covered Patios By Beach Star offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and accommodations for up to seven guests. Its two covered patios give your group additional space to spread out after returning from the event.
Walk to Boardwalk + SkyWheel | Central Location
Walk to Boardwalk + SkyWheel | Central Location has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and room for up to six guests. Its central Myrtle Beach location is near the Boardwalk and SkyWheel, which can be useful for groups that want to pair Jeep Jam with time in the city's entertainment district.
Beach Star Realty manages these Myrtle Beach homes, but inventory can change quickly around popular weekends. Compare occupancy limits, parking information, check-in times, and house rules before choosing the best fit. You can also review Myrtle Beach stays near the SkyWheel if you want to explore more lodging options.
Practical Tips for Jeep Jam Weekend
A little preparation can make the weekend much easier, especially if you plan to participate in several early and evening activities.
- Buy or register through the official site. Confirm Jeep Jam 2026 tickets, spectator wristbands, add-ons, and registration status directly with the event.
- Arrive Thursday for the Poker Run. It occurs on October 29, before the main weekend.
- Plan for early mornings. The Sunrise Beach Crawl begins at 6:00 AM on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

- Prepare for mud. Pack suitable shoes, spare clothes, towels, and bags for dirty gear.
- Review parking before booking. Confirm vehicle limits and parking rules directly with your chosen rental.
- Do not rely on an old screenshot. Event details can change, so check the official website again shortly before departure.
Myrtle Beach Jeep Jam 2026 combines off-road action with a full Halloween weekend on the coast. Confirm final details and purchase tickets through the official event site, then book early because the weekend draws a crowd.
