NEMPA Event Venues

When automakers want to reach the New England media, they come to us. NEMPA hosts personalized vehicle launches, technology presentations, and media meetups at the Automotion Garage in Middleborough, Massachusetts, a venue with the space, flexibility, and character to handle everything from an intimate product briefing to a seated dinner for 150. It’s a cost-effective alternative to hotel ballrooms, with the kind of setting where journalists actually want to spend time.

Can’t attend in person? NEMPA also hosts monthly vehicle showcases and meetings on Zoom, so every member can participate wherever they are.
