In honor of NASCAR’s biggest and baddest race of the season (the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway on May 27), Food Lion Speed Street Festival gives the out-of-towners and locals a chance to partake in NASCAR-related activities, including autograph and Q&A sessions with drivers. Would someone ask them if they get tired of going in circles, please?

Live music (often of the nostalgic variety) on multiple stages, food vendors and other activities. Free admission. May 25-26, 12 p.m.-11 p.m. For a schedule of performers and more information, visit www.600festival.com.
