About Spring Festival

Started in 2006 in the FCA US California Business Center parking lot as a small group and active community of online Chrysler and Dodge 'LX' owners and forum users, 'Spring Festival' has grown into one of the largest viral owner events in the country (LX was the original vehicle platform code for Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum). It has become somewhat of a homecoming for the owners, giving the active digital communicators a chance to meet face to face.

With food, prizes, custom vehicle displays, vendor alleys, cruises, parties and manufacturer round-table discussions, the event has evolved from a single day into a three-day weekend — part homecoming, part celebration of great American cars, and part festival that has become a family destination every March.

The Spring Festival of LXs is a unique collaboration between FCA US California Business Center, owners, forum users, aftermarket vendors and 'tricked-out' vehicles from the factory. http://www.socallx.com/SpringFestival.aspx
