This Week in Seaside Heights: MDW kicks off with free boardwalk concert!

Welcome to This Week in Seaside Heights!

Each week through the fall, we’ll be telling you about fun events and activities in the family-friendly resort just across the road from Exit 82!

The 2017 season will be the best yet in Seaside Heights. It began in February with the Polar Bear Plunge and ends on New Year’s Eve with First Night Ocean County.

The summer season kicked off over the weekend with the Jersey Shore Festival.

Now, stayed tuned for a diverse array of a exciting major and weekly events, including free concerts, bonfires, movies, camping, and more! And of course, let’s not forget the bay and ocean beaches, arcades, restaurants, games of chance, and Casino Pier & Breakwater Beach.

Be sure to check out the new ferris wheel and roller coaster, Hydrus, too!

You can see all events (there’s A LOT going on this summer) — along with lodging, entertainment, dining, and more information — here. And, you can always take a peek at what’s happening in Seaside Heights on the live cam here.

Seaside Heights: Clean beaches that are continually voted some of the best at the shore, delicious restaurants, family friendly entertainment, and a boardwalk that will make anyone smile. “Your home for family fun since 1913!”

So come join us!

Ready? Let’s go!

May 26, 27, 28, 29 – Memorial Day weekend

There are activities year-round in Seaside Heights, but the community really starts to come alive in early May when it traditionally gets warmer. We’d love to see you in Seaside Heights to celebrate the official kickoff to the summer.

Join us on the boardwalk Friday morning in front of Spicy Cantina to see John Cafferty & the Beaver Brown Band + Big Shot perform as part of WCBS-FM’s Scott Shannon in the Morning 2017 Summer Blast-Off show.

WCBS-FM and the Shannon in the Morning show crew (Scott, Patty Steele, John Elliott, Brad Blanks & Louie Louie) are getting set to kick off the summer of 2017 proper with John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band with their hits “Some Like it Hot,” “Heart’s on Fire,” “On The Dark Side,” and more from the motion picture soundtrack for Eddie and the Cruisers.

Shannon in the Morning will be broadcasting live between 6 and 10 a.m.

It’s free! 

After that, stick around for the weekend and enjoy everything we have to offer.
