Join NCRLA on Tuesday, June 2, 2026, from 5–6:30 p.m. at the Merrimon-Wynne House in downtown Raleigh for Rally in Raleigh—an essential annual gathering during the legislative session.

This signature event connects restaurant and lodging operators with North Carolina lawmakers in a relaxed, reception-style setting designed for meaningful conversation and real impact. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage directly with legislators, discuss the key issues shaping the hospitality industry, and help influence the policies that affect businesses and the workforce across the state.

Enjoy beer, wine and exceptional bites provided by Rocky Top Catering while networking with fellow NCRLA members, industry partners and decision-makers. Whether you’re advocating for your business, your team or the broader hospitality community, your voice plays a critical role in shaping North Carolina’s legislative landscape.

This event is free to attend, but registration is required.
