Light the Knights Festival, at Truist Field, 324 S Mint Street, Charlotte, NC, returns for the 2023 holiday season.
It again features a regulation size ice rink on the field and a 10-lane snow tubing slope in the outfield. The snow tubing slope is larger than last year when it had 6 lanes, which means you shouldn’t have as long of a wait to tube.
You’ll need to sign a waiver to tube or skate.

The 10-lane, 150-foot tubing hill is in right field!

There will be all kinds of activities on the skating rink, including tournaments, figure skating and chances to learn to play hockey.

It will run from Wednesday, November 22, 2023, to Monday, January 1, 2024. (See schedule below.)
Santa will be there every day the festival is open (until after Christmas.)
