Small Business Saturday in Historic South End

The Historic South End has hosted one of Charlotte’s most popular Small Business Saturday events for several years. It’s a chance to support our local businesses, rather than the big box stores, and get out into the community.

Like everything else, South End’s Small Business Saturday is a little different this year.

In an effort to spread out the crowds, Small Business Saturday starts November 28th, but then goes on all season.

Keep checking the Facebook event for updates.
