WRPA Annual Conference & Tradeshow 2027
The WRPA Annual Conference & Tradeshow is the premier yearly gathering of the Washington parks and recreation community, hosted by the Washington Recreation and Park Association (WRPA). The event traditionally draws hundreds of agency professionals, students, emerging leaders, sponsors, exhibitors, and speakers for multi-day education, networking, and a dedicated tradeshow floor.
The official conference hub at conference.wrpatoday.org announces the 2027 WRPA Conference & Tradeshow in Spokane, Washington, on May 11–14, 2027. WRPA lists the same dates on its public events calendar, noting that additional program and registration details will be published closer to the event. The conference rotates among Washington venues; past editions have been held in cities such as Kennewick and Tacoma, with Spokane hosting again for 2027.
Attendees can expect general sessions, breakout workshops, student and emerging professional programming, awards activities, sponsor socials, and structured tradeshow breaks where exhibitors connect with decision-makers from park districts, recreation departments, and related agencies. Organizations interested in exhibiting or sponsoring typically find booth and partnership information through WRPA conference materials as they are released.
