​2023 UTV Events For Polaris RZR Owners

For some Razor owners, the whole point of riding is to get out and away from people. For others, however, riding is more of a social event, an opportunity to explore, see new things, and experience the bounty of nature with the ones you love. If you’re of the former bent and prefer to ride in solitude, you probably won’t be interested in the information contained herein. But if you’re a social butterfly, if you like to meet new people with interests similar to your own, or if you want to try something different with your friends, your family, or by yourself, there’s no better time than the present to start planning for one of the many great UTV events taking place in 2023. Be it a benefit ride, a race, a guided tour, or a full-on UTV jamboree with music, games, and other forms of entertainment, there’s sure to be a side-by-side event in 2023 to match your interests, your availability, and your location. From bounty holes and hill climb competitions to off-road festivals with all manners of bread and circus, here are some of the 2023 UTV events for Polaris RZR owners to enjoy!

UTV Takeover 2023

UTV Takeover began as a small get-together organized by riders, for riders. This idea took off, and since their humble beginnings, UTV Takeover has grown to become one of the largest off-road event series in America! In 2023, UTV Takeover will have its first event in Coos Bay Oregon at the dune-filled Boxcar Hill Campground between the dates of June 22nd and June 24th. Two more UTV Takeover events are also planned for 2023: UTV Takeover at the MidAmerica Outdoors Offroad Park in Jay Oklahoma on a date that has yet to be determined, and UTV Takeover at the Sand Hollow State Park in Hurricane Utah on October 19th to October 23rd.

Each destination offers unique terrain for all vehicles and every skill level. And in addition to the main riding events, UTV Takeover also puts on dozens of other family-friendly activities that differ based on the venue. Vendors and leading brands will be in attendance, and thousands of dollars will be donated after each leg of the event series to protect the local riding areas, maintain the local riding areas, and preserve / expand users’ rights to ride!

UTV Invasion 2023

If you can’t make it to any of the 2023 UTV Takeover events, there are plenty more where that came from, and another great family-friendly side-by-side event series is UTV Invasion, which takes place in Sand Mountain Utah between May 19th and May 21st, St. Anthony Idaho between August 31st and September 3rd, and Waynoka Oklahoma between September 21st and September 24th.

You can expect activities like drag races, wheelie competitions, night rides, and UTV teeter totters at UTV Invasion, as well as raffles, cornhole tournaments, and sand x raing. Aside from the BLM fee to enter the area, admittance to UTV Invasion was free in 2022, and will likely be free in 2023 as well (unless you’re wanting to dry camp, RV camp, or VIP camp).
