The gathering was held at the crash site in Santa Clarita, California, where the 40-year-old actor died in a fatal car crash with friend Roger Rodas on November 30, reported Los Angeles Times.
The memorial service, which was organised through social media, was expected to begin at noon but fans arrived hours early to leave flowers, notes and other tributes.
Many fans joined the service in high performance vehicles as a nod to Walker's own love of cars and for his starring role in 'The Fast and the Furious' movie franchise.
Several cars which Walker drove in the street racing movies were on display in a nearby church car park along with a huge canvas, with a photo of Walker and Rodas on it, which fans could sign.
Walker and Rodas died when the Porsche GT, which Rodas was driving, collided with a lamppost and a tree before it burst into flames. The autopsy report stated, Walker died from "combined effects of traumatic and thermal injuries," meaning the actor not just from impact injuries, he also burnt to death.
The tragedy has been devastating to his fans as well as the actor's co-stars, who have used social media to pay their respects to Walker.
