It’s Memorial Day Weekend which means summer is officially around the corner! Whooo hoooo! I first want to thank and honor all veterans and their families who have sacrificed their lives serving and protecting our country. It is going to be a beautiful weekend with sunny skies and warm temperatures. There will be events honoring veterans all weekend especially on Monday. Speed Street returns this year but will be held out at the Charlotte Motor Speedway instead of downtown Charlotte like we are used to. There will be vendors, activities for the kids, live performances from artists that you may recognize and will conclude with the Coca-Cola 600 Series on Sunday. Charlotte FC will take on the Seattle Sounders on Sunday. Other activities this weekend include: concerts, 90’s party, fashion shows, activities for the pups, festivals, Nick Cannon’s Wild ‘N Out, movie premier, CFC watch parties, Memorial Day services and much more!
There are plenty of events going on this weekend to choose from…Please pick the event(s) that are just right for you and your family! Enjoy, have fun, and enjoy the weekend!
