The Asbury Park Boardwalk hosted the New Jersey stop of the Survivor 50 Challenge on Saturday, February 14, 2026. The event is part of a nationwide campaign marking the 50th season of the television series Survivor. Participants from across New Jersey and other states gathered outside Convention Hall to search for a hidden immunity idol, following digital clues released earlier in the week.
The challenge is being held in 50 locations across the United States, with each state represented by one city. Winners from each location will receive two tickets to attend the live Survivor 50 season finale in Los Angeles.
Former Survivor contestants Cirie Fields and Tony Vlachos made an appearance at the event, interacting with fans and supporting participants during their search along the boardwalk.
“Asbury Park continues to stand out as a place where national moments happen,” said City Manager Adam E. Cruz. “It was exciting to see our boardwalk filled with fans and to have our city included in such a major celebration of an iconic series.”
Survivor 50 is scheduled to premiere on Wednesday, February 25, 2026, on CBS and Paramount+. More information about events in Asbury Park can be found at www.cityofasburypark.com.
