Upcoming Events
5/25/2026 (Monday) - Memorial Day Car Show
Diablo's Memorial Day Charity Car Show, sponsored by Porsche Livermore and Porsche Fremont, at the picturesque Livery in Danville with its beautiful trees and serene atmosphere, brings together club members, friends, and the public to celebrate Porsches and honor the brave US military personnel who have sacrificed their lives in service to the nation. This extraordinary event is not just about showcasing magnificent cars; it is a heartfelt tribute to those who have served and a celebration of community spirit.
Registered cars will arrive at 9:00 am for placement. The Show is from 10:00 to 2:00 pm.
Lunch will be served at two restaurants: our traditional Luna Loca and the new Canyon Club Brewery. To help the restaurants manage the demand, meals will be served in three groups of 50 starting at 11:30 and again at 12:15 and 1:00. Additionally, Luna Loca will offer a “Take-out” option. Attendees will register on a first-come basis. The lunch ticket included in the registration packet has a $25 value and can be applied to meals and drinks of the participant's choice.
One of the event's highlights is the Operation Freedom Paws booth, where attendees can meet charity staff and learn about the programs that save lives through human-canine service dog partnerships. In addition to visiting the charity booth, participants can join the charity raffle, which offers exciting prizes from dealerships, wineries, and other service and product providers.
Costs: $40 per person registration. The cost includes a $25 lunch voucher at Luna Loca or Canyon Club Brewery.

What: Dinner at Dos Coyotes Border Cafe
Where: 3191 Crow Canyon Place, Suite L in San Ramon (next to Sprout's)
When: Wednesday, 5/20/26 at 6PM.
From their website “The first Dos Coyotes opened in The Marketplace in North Davis on 1/5/91. The menu was a little smaller than it is today. Our original tacos were - literally - two warm corn tortillas, tender, flame-broiled, steak or chicken, onions, cilantro, a charbroiled cebollita green onion and whatever salsa you liked. Simple. Pure. Delicious. In the 30 plus years since we opened that first restaurant, Dos Coyotes has grown, but the core principles haven't changed - delicious food, engaging atmosphere, exceptional value."
Please register using this link so we can get a tentative headcount. Order-and-pay at the front counter, attendees will pay separately.

What: Dinner at Porky’s Pizza Palace
Where: 2911 Hopyard Road, Pleasanton
When: Saturday, 6/20/26 at 6:00PM (note the date change from Wednesday to Saturday).
The date was changed so the dinner would coincide with the Ice Cream Social at Gene’s Fine Foods parking lot, which immediately precedes Dine with Diablo.
Porky’s and Gene’s are located in the exact same shopping complex and share the same parking lot. The date change was done so members attending the Ice Cream Social can conveniently join us afterwards for dinner at Porky’s.
Porky’s is known for their delicious pizza, pasta, fried chicken and large selection of beer. They are an order and pay at the counter type restaurant, so separate checks will not be a problem.
