This week in Ocean City pictures

A week of select pictures in Ocean City, Maryland

Let’s look at ten of the pictures taken in Ocean City, Maryland over the past week between August 24^th and August 30^th.  This past week saw two major events (OC Air Show and https://oceancityjeepfest.com) which provided many picture opportunities.  But for the sake of brevity, we are including only a few pictures in this summary.  So, here’s some of our favorite pictures for our OC Week in Review.

OC Air Show 2024

What a great air showing held this past week that featured, for the first time to Ocean City, the Italian Frecce Tricolori fighters! This year’s Air Show occurred on August 24^th and 25^th.  There was the F-22 Raptor Demo Team, Growlers, C-17 Globemaster III, A=10 Thunderbolt and more.  This was the first time the Ocean City Air Show was held in August.  This Air Show will return to its regular June time slot in 2025 and will feature the Blue Angels! 

OC Jeep Fest

Partially overlapping with the OC Air Show this year was the 2024 Ocean City Jeep Fest.  This event continues to grow and is one of the biggest Jeep events in the Mid-Atlantic region.  It is centered with activities, vendors and live entertainment, at the Ocean City Convention Center at 40^th Street.  During the morning hours of this four-day event, OC Jeep Fest also sponsored its popular Jeep Crawl which allows participants to drive their jeeps from the Ocean City inlet parking lot north to 30^th Street.  The event also provided a beach driving obstacle course for its participants.

Sunrise in Ocean City

It’s so easy to find excellent spots for a sunrise picture.  Ocean City has the best of these!  This week’s sunrise picture was taken near 24^th Street.  And we’ll have awesome sunset pictures coming up too in future weekly review pictures.

Boardwalk interest

Here’s Mackie Jenkins displaying his Noah Ark display on the OC Boardwalk adjacent to the Boardwalk Information Cottage at Caroline Street.  Mackie of Bethlehem Productions of Virginia spent two years building this Ark replica.  Check it out!

Ocean City Boardwalk

Often Oceancity.com will provide pictures of the popular attraction on the Boardwalk, but this week we ended our week with a wet morning and a dedicated runner on the boards.

Sunset Park music events

This past Thursday, August 29^th ended the free music concert series at Sunset Park for 2024 on a high note with the local jam band, The Dunehounds performing.   Always a popular event, these free concerts highlight great music by local and regional artists.  Look for next year’s music schedule to be available in spring of 2025.  These concerts are held on Thursdays in July and August.  These free concerts are sponsored by Ocean City Development Corporation and the Town of Ocean City.
