Midwest Mopars in the Park , Farmington Minnesota. Always the weekend after Memorial day.
Mopar's on the Mississippi in Dubuque, Iowa 4th Sunday in August

Chicagoland Mopar Connection, has a 2 day show in July at the Boone county fairgrounds in Belvidere Illinois. The show has been going on for over 30 years now.
2025 Mopar Happening | Chicagoland MOPAR Club


MoparFest in New Hamburg, Ontario. Canada. Im familiar with this show. But it's not in the lower 48. And wonder how many, if any cars from the US attend it.

There used to be one in Tucson out at the drag strip. I went to it a couple of years. They had a swap meet, car show and drags, I took my 72 Road Runner. I havent seen anything for it in a long time. Do they still have one? I think a guy named Maurer ran it, not sure about that though

Unrelated item, I found it interesting that they are cutting Moparty back to Friday and Saturday in 2026 from the 3 day show it's been the previous 6 years.
 
Fall Fling is coming up, though it seems smaller than the Spring one.
Fall fling is Saturday only

I'm interested in hearing about multi days shows , especially well-established all mopar shows
The more centrally located in the lower 48 states, the better

Not that Im aware of

There was an all Mopar show there about 4 years ago. But at most 25-30 cars and it was one day only, pretty much a bust
Which is a shame as there are A LOT of vintage Chrysler products around here.

There is a pretty decent show up In Phoenix each Spring. But its a 1 day only show held at a Mopar dealership. It can and usually does pull a couple hundred cars

Myself and I think most others left Saturday evening. Its was a 3 day drive for me to get home
And I decided to get a few hours under my belt on Saturday. Made the next 2 days much more bearable

I have a 90+% rate of attending the Spring event and less than 50% of the Fall show.
One thing great about the Fall Fling is that you see an increase in driver quality cars that often don’t appear there in the Spring. I love to see cars that have some scratches and scuffs because they are often the ones that actually get driven and used.
 
MoparFest in New Hamburg, Ontario. 2-day show with 1500 cars and swap meet. Weekend after Mopar Nationals in Columbus.
 
For those of you going to the Garlits show (Mopars with Big Daddy) on October 31 - November 2nd, I will see you there!
 
I do fondly remember the old Car Craft Shows multiple days
it wasn't one brand thou...
Especially the one at CalExpo Sacramento
(then drags/fastest street cars stuff after) back in the Pro-street days
was pretty good always, early & into the mid 80's, was fun as heck
great ran show & events after/or during

I haven't been to many after that,
it was killed off, turned me off & many people like me too
turned into the A-typical
all C10 lowered or K10 lifted to the moon
or all Camaro/Mudstain show
What we called Jafmo (just another f--king Camaro)
or Jafma (just another f--king Mustang)
or all the Minitrucks, & lowered with huge stereos blaring,
Datsun Mitsubishi Toyota
scrapping the ground or 59-67 Impala lowriders show seemingly,
cool paint jobs, but not much for me :blah:
(& I like Camaros & Trans Ams, but not only Camaros & Trans Ams)

too bad Goodguys don't or won't
put on an all Mopars show
they put on 'great shows' & have great attendances,
great venders & car corals/sales, great venues too
multiple days like most their event are (or were),
some even with (a close) track use
& autocross on property etc.
"that'd be fun as heck"

I'd maybe even go to a show again
