2. Mark your calendars for a night of fun on September 30 in Downtown Mooresville from 6 to 9 p.m. MDC Uncorked and Artsy will be featuring wine and craft beer tastings, artists and music along Main and Broad streets. The wine and craft beer tasting is a ticketed event. Each ticket is $25 which includes a souvenir wine glass and 16 one-ounce tastings.

3. Music and moonlight, what a wonderful combination. That's why the "Symphony Under the Stars” event by Lake Norman Philharmonic, which is set to take place on September 30 at Mooresville’s newest performing arts venue, Liberty Park Amphitheatre, 255 E. Iredell, from 6:30-8:30 p.m., promises to be a great time. According to the Mooresville Tribune, "this outdoor concert will feature the Lake Norman Philharmonic (LKN Phil), a registered nonprofit community orchestra founded and conducted by Maestro Eduardo Cedeño. The LKN Phil is comprised of community musicians and is open to local instrumentalists desiring to share their talent and perform orchestral music that enhances performing arts in communities surrounding the Lake Norman region." Hope to see you at the concert! (Mooresville Tribune)
