Welcome to the official site of the E30 Picnic,
the largest annual gathering of E30s in the World!
Held during the last weekend in June in Spanaway, Washington, the E30 Picnic sees upwards of 200 E30s from 6-8 states and two Canadian Provinces. The event has turned into a whole weekend of activities. A Tech Session at Griots Garage and evening party at James Crivellone’s house on Saturday, with the traditional E30 Picnic on Sunday.

The E30 Picnic was featured in the seminal E30 Documentary Respect Your Elders produced and directed by Owen Craft. The BMW 3 Series E30 chassis was produced from 1984-1991. The sturdy car has developed a cult like following, with an enthusiastic group of owners in the Pacific Northwest, home of the E30 Picnic. The BMW E30 chassis was very versatile, offering 2-door and 4-door models. Also Touring, Cabriolet and sporty M3 models. An all-wheel drive was even offered! We encourage you to enjoy the site, learn about past E30 Picnics, and hopefully if you own an E30 you will consider attending. And don’t let distance be an impediment. |
