Motorized Animal Weekend — April 25

Motorized Animal Weekend is scheduled for Saturday, April 25, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at The Compound by Dirt Dog in Commerce, just southeast of Los Angeles. (eventbrite.com) The event listing says MAW_Events is organizing an all-ages car show and art market at 2909 Supply Avenue, with doors opening at 10:30 a.m. and free parking on nearby streets. (eventbrite.com) Organizers say the day will mix handmade-goods vendors, live DJs, food, free raffles, cosplay and “furry culture” with Itasha car displays, the anime- and character-themed vehicles known for full-body wraps and custom art. (eventbrite.com) The event is billed as a crossover gathering rather than a standard kids fair: MAW_Events says it brings together the furry community, car enthusiasts and local artists in one place for a five-hour daytime meet. (eventbrite.com) That framing helps explain the “motorized animal” label. MAW’s public pages describe the group as a Southern California organizer of furry, anime and car-meet events in Los Angeles and Orange counties, and its April 25 listing centers on themed cars and art-market culture more than amusement rides. (linktr.ee) The car-show side has its own rules. MAW says showcase parking is first come, first served with a $5 donation, and featured vehicles must be running, “show-ready” builds such as modified, themed, Itasha, anime, furry or enthusiast cars. (eventbrite.com) The organizer’s Eventbrite page lists 115 followers, 7 events and about 1,600 total attendees across its account, suggesting the April 25 meet is part of a recurring local series rather than a one-off pop-up. (eventbrite.com) For families or first-time visitors, the practical takeaway is simple: this is a daytime, all-ages themed car-and-art gathering in Commerce on April 25, with free general admission options and separate sponsor donation tiers on the ticket page.
