FORD ADDING BRONCO OFF-ROADEO ADVENTURE DRIVING SCHOOL IN TENNESSEE

JUN 20, 2024 | DEARBORN

  • Bronco Off-Roadeo Tennessee becomes the fifth and newest Bronco Off-Roadeo location, giving Bronco and Bronco Sport customers and enthusiasts hands-on instruction to grow their off-road driving skills
  • 1,000-acre facility is conveniently located near Knoxville, placing all Bronco Off-Roadeo locations within 500 miles of more than 80 percent of Bronco and Bronco Sport owners
  • Ford is extending eligibility of 2022 Model Year Bronco and Bronco Sport owners to attend a Bronco Off-Roadeo through the end of 2024
DEARBORN, Mich., June 20, 2024 – This October, Ford will open its fifth Bronco Off-Roadeo adventure driving school in Tennessee, where Bronco and Bronco Sport owners and enthusiasts can receive instruction on how to take Bronco family SUVs off-road.

Every Bronco Off-Roadeo experience is equipped with exciting and challenging trails, custom-designed Bronco basecamp facilities and a team of expert Trail Guides. The hands-on and immersive experiences highlight the design and engineering that make Bronco and Bronco Sport so capable.

New Bronco and Bronco Sport owners receive complimentary access to an all-day hands-on education and guided course. Non-owners and Bronco enthusiasts can purchase a four-hour paid off-road quest with guided instruction as part of a Half-Day Adventure at Bronco Off-Roadeo. Participants of all skill levels are welcome, and a Bronco or Bronco Sport will be provided for use throughout the experience.

“With the opening of Bronco Off-Roadeo Tennessee, now 80 percent of Bronco and Bronco Sport owners will have access to an Off-Roadeo location that’s within 500 miles of their home,” said Bronco Off-Roadeo Manager Kelsey Gerken. “The Tennessee location also adds to the diversity of terrain with forested trails that complement the Las Vegas desert, Texas hill country, Moab red rocks and New Hampshire mountains.”

Situated less than an hour south of Knoxville, Tenn, Bronco Off-Roadeo Tennessee brings Bronco off-road education to the gateway of two of America’s most popular national parks, Great Smoky Mountains and Blue Ridge Parkway. This new location sits on over 1,000 acres of hilly, forested terrain in eastern Tennessee that’s been family-owned for over 80 years.

"Nine out of 10 Bronco customers say Bronco Off-Roadeo exceeded their expectations for the experience*,” said Gerken. We want to make sure as many Bronco owners as possible have the opportunity to attend and our new Smoky Mountains location delivers another convenient location and unique Tennessee feel and experience,”.

Reservations Open Today

Bronco customers can register starting today for the Bronco and Bronco Sport experiences, which kick off on October 4..

Registrations for the Bronco Half-Day Adventure open for non-Bronco owners in July. Those interested in attending the Half-Day Adventure can sign up to be notified when the registration site is available.

Construction at Bronco Off-Roadeo Tennessee is already underway, with crews working on new trails to show off the segment-leading off-road capability and accessibility of the Bronco and Bronco Sport. Crews are using an existing foundation to add a central pavilion for classroom instruction and group gatherings, as well.

Extended Bronco Off-Roadeo Eligibility

Ford is also extending eligibility for Bronco and Bronco Sport owners to visit any Bronco Off-Roadeo location.

  • MY2022 Bronco, Bronco Sport Badlands, and Bronco Raptor owners have until December 31, 2024
  • MY2023 Bronco, Bronco Sport, and Bronco Raptor owners have until June 30, 2025
  • MY2024 Bronco, Bronco Sport, and Bronco Raptor owners have until mid-December 2025

Woot! Was in the process of planning on going to NH before my Off-Roadeo voucher expired this year. I love TN and don't need another reason to make my way there. Look forward to attending the TN site.

Dang, I wish this location was available a few years ago as it’s only 3.5 hours from me driving time. Makes sense though as this is very close to where Supercell East is held every year also.

I don't even know where the site is yet, but I will find out soon. I have some ideas but given its a Maryville address, it could be down the street from me on the west side of the park or its going to be over on the east side of town before hitting Townsend city limits. It can't be in the park so there are only so many areas it can go specially at 1000 acres.

Do they say exactly where it is? I know they tried to lease a parcel in Walland over the winter but the neighbors didn't want it and caused a stink. Seems still in Blount County, though.

Could it be Bays Mountain?

Sweet registered for October 7th.
Was going to select the 7th also. But I'll go hiking for the beginning of the week, then rest in the driver's seat on Thurs. Hiked to Charlie's Bunion among many other hikes this past spring and look forward to comparing the spring/fall vantage points.

About time! Since you’re going on Oct 10, I’ll take a look at that date as well.

Would be great to link up with some of the Bronco6G family. :)

The Smokies are just an awesome place. Swear I couldn’t be more happy than to learn of this.
