The 12hr Frenzy at the Fairgrounds is a dusk to dawn fundraising endurance event held at the Harrison County Fairgrounds in Gulfport, MS. The event supports the Coastal MS Wildcats Track and Field program, with all proceeds directed to the team.

Event amenities and provisions include several fire pits at a shared basecamp area. Participants may bring tents or camp chairs for rest between loops and should bring their own food and water. Finishers receive a custom dog tag. The published entry fee is $35 and additional donations are accepted.
The event is presented as an overnight trail challenge that combines timed hourly laps with an informal camp atmosphere at the fairgrounds.
