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.

Your week's stressful events weren't funny at all, so it's fairly safe to say that you're in need of a good laugh. There will be chuckles aplenty at the Comedy Zone.

There's also a menu that features snacks like wings, subs and pizza. Reservations are highly recommended at this nightlife destination.
