Registration is Open for Big 4 American Luxury Car Show and Picnic to be Held Oct. 5

The wait is over folks! One of LCOC’s most popular events returns for 2024 on Saturday Oct. 5 at the William R. Mason, Regional Park, Irvine.  Come join with your fellow car buffs to enjoy good fellowship, tire kicking and viewing some of the greatest American cars ever built! We had over 50 attendees last year despite the threat of rain.  This year we are looking forward to our most successful Big 4 car show and picnic ever. You won’t want to miss it!

Commit early; parking is limited, so advance registration is required.  When the registration limit is reached, registration will close. 

Of course, we would love to see that beautiful Lincoln, Continental, or Mark, but the Big 4 Picnic is open to club members and their family and friends with or without their collector cars.  

Picnic management rotates among the sponsoring clubs. This year the Southern California Cadillac & LaSalle Club is the host organization assisted by LCOC, two Packard clubs and the Southern California Imperial Owners, Inc.
