7 Places in the Queen City to Go on a Date
Whether you are in a relationship or hoping to be in one soon, Charlotte has plenty of fun date night options that can help you impress that special someone!
1.) Wine & Design
This is the perfect spot if you and your partner want to get crafty all while sipping on your favorite wine/beer. No need to be an expert painter either! Wine & Design sketches out what you’re going to be painting on a canvas so you can follow along easily with an instructor guiding you through your strokes!
2.) U.S. National Whitewater Center
For those couples who love to be outdoors, this is the date place for you! The U.S. National Whitewater Center has different activities like whitewater rafting, ziplines, flatwater kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, deep water solo, ropes courses, and many many more.
3.) Carowinds
Not every relationship will have bizarre ups and downs like a rollercoaster, but you still need your rollercoaster fix! Carowinds is the destination for the adrenaline junkie couples who love the thrill. With a total of 14 roller coasters, it ranks 5th in the world as having the most roller coasters in one park.
4.) Funny Bus Comedy City Tour
Maybe you two are new to the area, or maybe you’ve been in CLT for a while but you don’t know much about the history of the Queen City. Look no further! The Funny Bus Comedy City Tour is just the unique experience you’re looking for. Charlotte’s Funny Bus is an informational city bus tour and a BYOB comedy show all in one. The jokes are like what you’d hear in a comedy club, so the trip is an adult-only way to learn about North Carolina’s biggest city!
