We’re looking forward to seeing you for the annual WAPA Rally!

The event will be held on Thursday, October 5, 2023. We are returning to the Herrington on the Bay resort on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland.

Those of you familiar with the WAPA Rally know it is an all-day driving event for Washington Automotive Press Association members. It is the best chance for Mid-Atlantic automotive journalists to sample new cars from a variety of brands, all in their own backyard, while creating content along the way. It’s also a great opportunity for automotive media and industry representatives to meet face-to-face.

As a reminder, this event is for WAPA members only. Guests, family members, and non-media members are not able to participate in the WAPA Rally.

If you are not a WAPA member but would like to attend, please click on the ticket link for non-members. We will reach out to gather member registration information and your membership will be valid through 2024.

We look forward to seeing you all at the Bay to explore what your favorite brands have in store for the rest of 2023, 2024, and beyond.
