National Jamboree
Welcome to the 2026 National Jamboree!
Join us at the world-renowned Summit Bechtel Reserve for an unforgettable adventure. Scouting’s flagship event is one of a kind. A gathering of approximately 30,000 Scouts, leaders, and staff showcases everything great about the BSA and its members. The 2026 National Jamboree, themed "ELEVATE," will challenge you to reach new heights in scouting, leadership, and personal growth.
The 2026 National Jamboree is open to Scouts BSA, Venturing, Explorer, and Sea Scouts ages 12 and up!
