The center always has all the most current information about what is happening in the city and upcoming events. The also have several copies of the Charlotte Happenings magazine and another local magazine. I've seen some of the events they host outside their center and they really showcase the city in a great way. My favorite event was the Chef Alyssa's Kitchen demo they hosted. All of the employees inside the visitor center are super helpful and knowledgeable. The visitor center isn't very big but it packs a big punch. One of my favorite items it has is the candles from Doc Porters. They run out so you have to check in often to see if they have any. I recommend popping in anytime your downtown and need to know what's happening in the city!
