This is going to be a super busy weekend in Charlotte. Not only will it be the first home game in Charlotte for the Panther’s, it’s also the 21st anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, so there will be memorials and other events going on for that as well.

It’s not technically Fall yet, but lets be honest, we’re all pretending that it is. Fall is my favorite time in Charlotte, because the weather is amazing, and there are so many events around town.

While we do have some rain in the forecast for this weekend, there is still plenty of stuff going on to check out.

Here are my top picks of things to this weekend around Charlotte.
