July is a month of celebrations, so check out about some of the special events across North Carolina this summer. Experience endless ways to enjoy the NC outdoors, such as climbing up Chimney Rock or flying down a mountainside zipline. With the kids out of school, it’s a perfect time to gather the family in a sunny spot on the Outer Banks (where you’ll discover half the fun is getting there!), or perhaps to plan a romantic wedding or honeymoon on charming Bald Head Island. Those wanting to ‘play a round’ to celebrate their summer will find some of NC’s longest golf holes will provide the challenge they’re seeking.

When it’s time to go inside, we’ve got that covered too! Have dinner in a historic building, go shopping in one of NC’s most stylish malls or explore Charlotte by light rail.

Come to North Carolina in July and celebrate your summertime independence!
