Food Vibes Only

The North Carolina State Fair attracts an impressive 800,000 people every year, making it the largest annual event in North Carolina. Over the course of the 11-day festival, arts, agriculture, cultural exhibits and an amusement fairway all offer something fun to do and see every minute that you are there. Also, the event always features performances by nationally recognized talent.

Instead of just relaxing by a lake, why not relax in it! That's precisely what you can do at Lake Wheeler Park. Sure, there are spacious areas for picnicking and outdoor recreation, but you can also go fishing, canoeing, sailing and kayaking. If you need help, find it at the Waterfront Program Center.
