The Der Kleiner Kampfwagens Cruise Night is rolling into Anaheim for 2026, bringing the best of SoCal’s air-cooled Volkswagen and Porsche culture to a lively weekend gathering. This one has a laid-back vibe, where enthusiasts of all ages come together to enjoy cars, coffee, and community energy in one spot.
Expect a lively atmosphere at The Colony House, where vehicles of all types, air-cooled Volkswagens, vintage Porsches, hot rods, and even projects-in-progress, line the area. The park-like setting makes the event family-friendly, with shaded picnic areas, nearby walking trails, and plenty of room for spectators to roam while checking out each car. Attendees who arrive early can even find shaded spots for their own cars, adding a comfortable touch to a classic Southern California car meet.
Hosted by Der Kleiner Kampfwagens, this recurring gathering celebrates the Southern California “Cal Look” culture. The club features judged “Club Choice” awards, custom dash plaques, live DJ sets, and partner food trucks serving quality meals and coffee. Whether you’re stopping by solo, with your crew, or as part of a car club, the event emphasizes community, good vibes, and a shared love of air-cooled classics.
Happening at The Colony House in Anaheim, Orange County, this event draws cars from across SoCal, including pristine Cal Look Beetles, performance-stanced classics, and fully restored Porsches. While the focus is on air-cooled vehicles, the meet welcomes a variety of styles, giving visitors a dynamic display of automotive craftsmanship. The location itself provides a great backdrop for photos, casual strolls, and lingering conversations with fellow enthusiasts.
With live music, award presentations, and a relaxed, shaded setting, the Der Kleiner Kampfwagens Cruise Night offers an approachable yet high-energy experience for any car fan.
