First, mark “SCCA® National Convention” on your calendar for Jan. 15-20, 2027, then come back to this article.
Welcome back!
There are plenty of reasons to attend the SCCA National Convention, especially in 2027. For starters, the event is held online, so you can join in from nearly anywhere in the world. It’s also FREE(!) to attend, and all members of the Sports Car Club of America™ are welcome (and encouraged) to take part. Consider it an open invitation to spark something new.
Did we say spark? That was no accident, because this year’s National Convention theme is exactly that: Spark.
What is the SCCA National Convention? It’s where members come together to ignite fresh ideas, build valuable connections, celebrate well-earned recognition, and fuel their passion for the Club. With nearly 1,000 SCCA members, volunteers, leaders, officials, competitors, and staff in the mix, there’s no shortage of perspectives to share, inspiration to discover, or possibilities to unearth.
Whether you want to reignite energy in your Region, take your events up a notch, sharpen your leadership skills, meet your next motorsports friend, or help steer the Club toward an exciting future, this is the place to get things moving. One conversation can spark an idea. One new connection can fuel a collaboration. And one fresh perspective can set something bigger in motion.
See? Spark!
And what’s a spark without a little celebration? The Convention also shines a spotlight on the people who make SCCA special, with awards ranging from the SCCA Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony to some of the Club’s top honors in Solo®, Road Racing, RallyCross®, and RoadRally.
Drivers are welcome too! The National Convention features something for everyone, including information about future programs, licensing, event innovations, and more.
You Say “And More”
More, like what? Wondering about EVs in motorsports? The SCCA National Convention will have a session involving exactly that. Want to know what the future holds for Road Racing’s Regional programs? You’re welcome to attend that session. Curious about how Track Days, Time Attack, and Road Racing can work together to elevate a Region’s weekend? Yes, there is a session that’ll go into that topic, too.
While we know some of the “and more” that will take place at the 2027 National Convention, we’re still developing many of the details, with a full listing hitting the National Convention’s webpage in early December.
There’s also “more” in that numerous SCCA Divisions are hosting Divisional Conventions…like:
- Southeast Division, Jan. 22-24, 2027, Atlanta, GA
- Rocky Mountain Division, Jan. 30, 2027, Virtual
- Northeast Division, Feb. 20, 2027, Scranton, PA
- Great Lakes Division, March 5-6, 2027, Fort Wayne, IN
- Midwest Division, TBD
- Central Division, March 13-14, 2027, Milwaukee, WI
More info to come on those, too.
Get Ready
All of this sounds great, right? The only bad news is you can’t register yet – registration will open Dec. 1. Two weeks later, on Dec. 15, we’ll be back with the complete National Convention schedule.
For now, there’s nothing to do except for marking your calendar and getting ready to spark new ideas, fuel your passion, and help shape what’s next for SCCA.
You can also prep by downloading the Whova app on your iPhone or Android phone, since Whova is the central location for your SCCA National Convention experience. Whether you use the phone app or not, you can also use a web browser and Whova’s webpage to get in on the Convention fun.
Join us Jan. 15-20, 2027, and see what a little spark can set in motion.
