Welcome to March where we’re just a step away from spring! The Queen City is still in the midst of winter but spring is definitely going to be here before we know it. Before that happens, you can still enjoy some of the wintry activities Charlotte has to offer like hitting the slopes or taking a cozy stroll in a bookstore. We’ve also rounded up some art events, cultural activities and spots you can try. Without further ado, here’s 21 fantastic things to do in Charlotte this March.
1. Enjoy these enchanting Candlelight concerts
The popular Candlelight series back in Denver, and they’re doing some really amazing tributes to some of culture’s most iconic musicians. This month at the Barrel Room, there’ll be nights dedicated to classical tributes to ABBA and at the Big Chill, enjoy classical versions of Coldplay’s greatest hits and pop hits, like Britney Spears.
2. Get hype for Charlotte’s next foodie hub in Vantage South End
Vantage South End is perfectly situated right near the Charlotte Rail Trail and Uptown, making it the prime spot for Charlotte’s newest foodie hub. So far, there’s been three restaurants announced–with six more being announced by real estate firm, The Spectrum Companies, later on in the year. Uptown Yolk will be making their 2022 debut here and whiskey lovers can hang at Dram & Drought, a new cocktail bar to hit the scene. You can also enjoy Belgian-style bratwursts and frites plus Montreal style bagels at The Good Wurst. More announcements to come.
3-8. Visit a independent book store
With around 2,700 books being released every day, you’re likely to find your new best read whenever you pop into any book store, and Charlotte’s got a few independent book stores that we love. Take a coffee, spend the afternoon inside one of these cozy bookstores, and support local businesses at the same time.
9-14. Explore Charlotte’s Black history with these murals by local artists
Charlotte has had many important Black figures who have grown up in neighborhoods like Brooklyn, Washington Heights, and Biddleville and who have then transcended to national and historical fame and remembrance. Some of the murals are by artists like Tommie Robinson and Abel Jackson who have made a name for themselves among Charlotte artists.
15. Check out this whimsical speakeasy
Supperland debuted in 2021 as a beautiful, modern take on potluck dinners and American classics. Set inside a renovated Midcentury Church and known for its amazing cocktails and elevated dinners. Now, they’re doing a special two hour session downstairs in their speakeasy where you can learn from a mixologist to learn about lesser known cocktails offered alongside small plates.
16-21. Catch the end of ski season at these resorts
