The rumble of classic engines and the shine of polished chrome will once again fill the Dakota County
Fairgrounds as Midwest Mopar in the Park returns this weekend to Farmington for its second year in a row at the fairgrounds.
This nationally recognized event has quickly become a highlight of the summer season and continues to draw 1000s of visitors, car enthusiasts, and families from across the Midwest. Hosted by the Midwest Mopar Car Club, the event is the largest car show in the Upper Midwest.
The club was founded in 1985 and has grown to more than 550 members, including their Duluth chapters, and remains dedicated to celebrating all things Mopar.
From the classic muscle cars to performance vehicles, the organization brings together enthusiasts who share a passion for Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, Jeep, and other related automotive history.
The Mopar in the Park event has an attendance of about 12,000 spectators, with more than 1,400 vehicles on display and over 300 swamp meet and vendor spaces filling the grounds.
The event creates an exciting atmosphere for attendees of all ages while bringing a substantial economic activity and visibility to the Dakota County Fairgrounds and surrounding community.
In addition to hosting an outstanding automotive event, Midwest Mopar Car Club uses proceeds from the show to support club activities and charitable needs within the community.
The event is focused on expanding family-friendly activities and encouraging greater involvement from spouses and families in upcoming events.
The Dakota County Fairgrounds is proud to continue partnering with the Midwest Mopar Car Club and looks forward to welcoming exhibitors, spectators, and families back for another successful year of Mopar in the Park, which takes place May 29 through the 31st.
