Cheers to the weekend! Second weekend into 2024. This past week we have dealt with storms, schools being closed, and plans cancelled or rearranged; however, the weekend looks much better. The weather is projected to be cold with temperatures in the high 40’s with clear sunny skies. This weekend there will be various events going on in and surrounding Charlotte to celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Please check out Featured Activity: Ways to Celebrate MLK Day for a list of events going on this weekend including Monday!
Congrats to all the teams that made the playoffs for this season. The Jets did not make it this year! NLF fans will be celebrating this weekend with tailgates and watch parties as the playoffs kick off this weekend. The Charlotte Checkers will go against the Rochester Americans this weekend. This is also the final weekend for Cirque de Soleil at the Charlotte Motor Speedway under the Big Top. I highly recommend checking that out as it is a great show! Other activities this weekend include: skate party, various sorority founder’s day events, brunches, ice skating, live musical and theatrical shows, art shows, open markets and so much more!
Please pick the event(s) that are just right for you and your family! Enjoy, have fun, be safe, and enjoy the weekend!
