Day 1: Washington, DC to Bristol VA - Monday, October 19th, 2026

We’ll start the morning with a stunning display at the starting grid, showcasing every incredible car in the lineup. As engines roar past the iconic monuments of our nation’s capital, we’ll embark on a curated driving route through some of Appalachia’s most exhilarating roads — including the legendary “Back of the Dragon.”

Get ready to experience some of the most thrilling and scenic driving terrain the eastern United States has to offer, culminating in our arrival at the brand-new Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Bristol, VA — the perfect destination to unwind, celebrate, and share stories from an unforgettable first leg of the rally.

The evening features an elegant dining experience at Council Oak Steaks & Seafood, renowned for its sophisticated, classic American steakhouse fare — a signature of the Seminole Hard Rock Hotels & Casinos in Florida. After dinner, the night’s still young… so try your luck on the casino floor — someone just might hit it big!


Day 2: Bristol, VA  to Knoxville, TN - Tuesday, October 20th, 2026

We’ll leave Bristol, VA in our rearview mirrors and head toward some of the most breathtaking back roads the Blue Ridge Mountains have to offer. Along the way, we’ll stop for a thoughtfully curated lunch in the vibrant city of Asheville, North Carolina, before continuing our journey through winding mountain passes and scenic stretches en route to The Tennessean Knoxville, TN for 2 nights. There, we’ll cap off the day with an unforgettable evening — dinner and drinks at an exclusive rooftop bar, surrounded by stunning views and great company.

Day 3: Knoxville, TN to "Kentucky Fun"  Wednesday, October 21st, 2026

With engines roaring, we’ll bid farewell to Knoxville, TN, and head north for some classic “Kentucky Fun,” as we like to call it! The details of our Kentucky Fun Activity will stay under wraps until we arrive — but if you’ve joined a Gravity Rally before, just imagine something even bigger. Prepare for a fast-paced, adrenaline-charged experience that will be talked about long after the rally ends!

After an incredible day on the road, we’ll return to The Tennessean Hotel for a well-deserved evening of relaxation, followed by dinner and drinks at one of Knoxville’s favorite local spots.
