Things to do in Charlotte

Charlotte has grown into the second-largest banking center in the United States, with Bank of America’s headquarters tower anchoring Uptown and Truist and Wells Fargo running major operations nearby. Energy, healthcare, logistics and a fast-growing technology sector round out an economy that keeps executives, consultants and bankers shuttling in and out every week. The city is also the hub of American stock car racing: most NASCAR teams are based within an hour’s drive, many of them around Mooresville and Concord.

  1. 01

    NASCAR Hall of Fame

    Uptown’s interactive museum traces stock car racing from moonshine-running roots to the modern era, with a ramp of historic race cars, simulators and a pit-stop challenge.

  2. 02

    U.S. National Whitewater Center

    West of the city, this outdoor center pumps a man-made whitewater river for guided rafting and kayaking, alongside climbing, zip lines and miles of mountain-bike and running trails along the Catawba River.

  3. 03

    Mint Museum

    Charlotte’s leading art museum has two campuses: Mint Museum Uptown, focused on American, contemporary and craft and design collections, and Mint Museum Randolph, set in the original 1830s branch mint building.

  4. 04

    Charlotte Motor Speedway

    In nearby Concord, the speedway hosts the Coca-Cola 600 on Memorial Day weekend and fall NASCAR racing, and offers track tours and ride-along experiences on non-race days.

  5. 05

    South End and the Rail Trail

    Former mill and warehouse buildings along the light rail line now hold breweries, restaurants, design shops and apartments, linked by a walking and biking path popular on weekend afternoons.

  6. 06

    Lake Norman

    North of Charlotte, the largest man-made lake in North Carolina offers boating, waterfront dining and lake homes, and many NASCAR race shops sit nearby in Mooresville.
