Center City Christmas Tree

Charlotte, NC is one of my favorite places this time of year. With the seasons changing and the holidays approaching, the southern charm of Charlotte just stands out! The friendliness of the people really comes to life!

As you drive around Charlotte you will see the holiday spirit coming to life. Lights are going up, decorations are being put in place and trees are getting trimmed for the holidays. And with such a diverse mix of cultures in the area, you are bound to see an interesting mix of holiday celebrations. And while the holiday shopping season is beginning as well, folks in Charlotte seem to have a smile on their face. The southern charm of this city already makes it a wonderful place to live, but add the holiday spirit on top of that and you just can’t help but make new friends!

While many people will be traveling all over this great country over the next few weeks, I will be happy to stay right here. Charlotte is a great place to be around the holidays! I hope you can get out and enjoy the festivities too!

Here are a few things to take in this holiday season:

Visit a few of the local malls for your holiday shopping:
- Concord Mills
- Carolina Place Mall
- Northlake Mall
- South Park Mall
- Eastland Mall
- Carolina Mall
- Gaston Mall
- Monroe Mall
Go to the Tree Lighting at South Park Mall on Wed November 21st at 8:00 pm.
Drive through McAdenville (Christmas Town USA) and enjoy the lights.
