WAR AT THE WHARF

Trucks Battle It Out at Orange Beach Invasion

- Words by Chris Hamilton Photos by Logan Wade

CELEBRATIN­G ITS FIFTH YEAR, ORANGE BEACH Invasion 2021 was stacked with lifted and lowered trucks, under-constructi­on and fully finished builds, and even a few of those weird looking “lean” trucks. All types of vehicles are welcome to this yearly show-and-shine event, which is what makes Orange Beach Invasion such a great show. More than 900 vehicles filled the grounds of The Wharf in Orange Beach, Alabama, and an additional few thousand spectators hit the venue street and shops to stimulate the local economy by supporting the businesses at The Wharf. It’s so nice to give back!

Tons of vendors came out to support the show as well. From custom wheels to temporary tattoos and even a Ferris wheel for the kids, you could find it in Orange Beach. As the sun began to set on Saturday, everyone knew what was coming next: the light show! The palm trees around the event were lit up and danced to the music being pumped around the town. That’s when vehicles up and down the strip started flipping on their LED underglow lights to show off their ride at night. This is also when the Ferris wheel starts buzzing with business as everyone rushes to get in line to see the show from the sky.

After a fun-filled evening, Sunday was another beautiful day at The Wharf. Although it was the last day of the event, everyone poured back into the show grounds for another busy day. In the afternoon, awards were presented to some of the top builds in attendance. Plans have already begun to make 2022’s event even bigger and better! Dates have not been released as of yet but be on the lookout! Orange Beach Invasion is definitely a show you don’t want to miss!
