READY FOR "THE BIG THING"?
We’re thrilled to announce that the OVERLAND VAN CLUB and THE REVEL CLUB will be hosting a special van meetup and training during "The Big Thing" at the incredible XOVERLAND Ranch - the home base of overland icons Clay and Rachelle Croft.
If you're part of the overlanding community, you likely already know the Crofts as the adventurous family behind the globally acclaimed Expedition Overland series on Amazon Prime Video. Their epic vehicle builds, international expeditions, and commitment to storytelling have inspired thousands to get off the grid and into the wild.
Now’s your chance to meet Clay and Rachelle in person, explore the XOVERLAND Ranch, and be part of a weekend packed with connection, adventure, and celebration.
THE ULTIMATE OVERLAND & ADVENTURE WEEKEND, IN THE HEART OF MONTANA
The Big Thing at XOVERLAND Ranch isn’t your average weekend!
It’s a three-day overland experience built around real-world skills, hands-on driving, and shared moments under the stars. Whether you’re a seasoned overlander or just getting started, The Big Thing 2026 by Overland Collective is where confidence grows, and connections stick.
Real Skills. Real Terrain. Real People.
HANDS ON TRAINING
Leave with skills you’ll actually use.
This is where you gain the knowledge and confidence you need for your next big adventure. From recovery techniques and navigation skills to cooking on the trail and setting up power systems, our expert-led classes cover a wide range of essential overlanding topics. Whether you're just starting or a seasoned traveler looking to enhance your skills, you'll find valuable sessions designed to help you grow.
TEST TRACK AND TRAIL DRIVES
Build confidence behind the wheel — safely.
Ready to test your skills? Join one of our guided 4WD trail drives, with routes suitable for all levels—from easygoing to more technical. We also have a dedicated test track for hands-on practice, where you can refine your driving technique and push your limits in a safe environment.
INSPIRATION HUB
Learn from people who've been there.
Throughout the event, hear inspiring stories from seasoned overlanders who have pushed boundaries and explored the world off the beaten path. After each presentation, you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions and dive deeper into their experiences.
CAMPFIRE HANGS + GOOD TIMES
This is where strangers become friends.
Whether you roll in with a rooftop tent or a teardrop trailer, this event is just as much about slowing down, making new friends, and soaking up the kind of moments you can’t manufacture. Think late-night laughs, early-morning coffee with your camp neighbors, and swapping road tales with people who get it.
