Great Smoky Mountain Jeep Invasion
August 26 - 28, 2021
9:00AM - 5:00PM
This indoor/outdoor event will feature an array of over 150 national and local Jeep accessory vendors. Last year over 7000 Jeeps were in attendance, and we are seeing more interest than ever. We feature dozens of vendors within the Center itself and holding a variety of events, including a Show and Shine competition for those wishing to impress with their build. We are also a proud sponsor of Smoky Mountain Service Dogs, a charity which provides specially trained service dogs to disabled veterans.
