North Carolina Festival ‘Matthews Alive’ Returns This Year
According to WSOC-TV, a longtime Labor Day weekend tradition is returning to Matthews this year after being canceled by covid for two years.
The Matthews Alive Festival will be held Sept. 2-5. It is four fun filled with live music, carnival rides, and games. It all happens in beautiful historic downtown Matthews.
Interim board chair and former Matthews mayor Jim Taylor said “I’m excited that we’re pulling things together for the 2022 festival. It’s been a long two years and I think the community is ready to have another Matthews Alive.”
The last time the event took place was in 2019. It was estimated to have drawn a crowd of over 150, 000 people. I love Matthews Alive! Especially because they always have a clown that makes balloon animals! More details here
