CRA is pleased to partner with the Wilmington Convention Center for our 2025 Conference. WCC's complex structure is reminiscent of Wilmington as an old “Port City.” The interior and exterior reflect the designers usage of angles and lines similar to that of a ship’s sail and hull, giving the WCC a classic, yet unique look true to our city’s historical beginnings. The WCC is on the north edge of the city, with stunning views right on the Cape Fear River.

We have partnered with several nearby hotels to secure discounted group rate rooms for your conference stay.
