Charlotte's Festival in the Park takes place every September in Freedom Park and offers locals and visitors a chance to celebrate the spirit of the city in a variety of ways. There's live music, great food, and a large selection of arts and crafts created by local artisans that truly capture the spirit of the area. There are also several displays of art from local, regional and even nationally recognized talents. Just be prepared for a long walk into the park, as parking spaces are at a premium and often the only one you'll find is relatively far away - just look at the walk as a chance to enjoy the scenery and bond with fellow festival-goers.

You and your loved one have seen little of each other lately, and even less of the outside world! So make a romantic date to spend some quality time together while enjoying the natural surroundings of the Wing Haven Garden and Bird Sanctuary. The gardens are lush and inviting, and walking along the trails or finding a spot on one of the benches will allow both of you to unwind as you breathe in the fresh air and take in the beauty of the scenery. Your commune with nature continues when you enter the bird sanctuary that houses several different types of fine feathered friends. Watch with your date, as the birds fly from one point to another, creating the perfect afternoon of relaxation, nature and even a dash of romance.

Need a good laugh but don't want to sit through anything offensive that might make you uncomfortable? Then you need to experience the fun and entertainment of the Family Friendly Improv Comedy Shows at Comedy Zone. The Charlotte Comedy Theater has been consistently making audiences laugh with some good clean fun for over ten years and they show no signs of stopping. Their quick wit, expert timing and truly hilarious antics are a real treat. In a world where anyone can be tasteless and have it be misinterpreted as comedy, it's nice to know that there's a troupe like the Family Friendly Improv Comedy Show that rises to the challenge of being respectful of its audience and still funny at the same time.
