Looking for something fun to do this weekend in Charlotte? Well, I’ve got you covered!

First of all, can we talk about how nice the weather has been this week? I told all y friends this is a tease, as we all know how North Carolina, we will definitely be getting a rouge 90 degree day again before Summer is officially over. But for now, i’m going to enjoy it.

There is plenty going on this weekend in Charlotte. Fall festivals, fairs, and other events are starting up again, and now that football is back; there’s not a lack of things to do.

Here are my top picks of things to do this weekend in Charlotte!

• Luminarium – Architects of Air

  Stop by Ballantyne’s Backyard for this event! This event is described as being a sensory experience of light, color, and sound. It looks very intriguing! Tickets cost $5 and is reoccurring through the month.

  Freedom Park will be overtaken by vendors for their annual Festival in The Park. This is always one of my favorites. It’s going on all weekend, and is free to attend although pro tip: parking is VERY limited. There will be tons of vendors selling food, crafts, art, and more.
