Posted By Anita Overcash on Fri, Nov 28, 2014 at 10:26 AM
Going out in Charlotte doesn't have to be expensive. In fact, to prove that statement, we've compiled a list of cheap - $10 or less - things to do in the Q.C. this weekend. These events may vary, but they're all entertaining and they won't break your bank (piggy banks excluded).
Shop Micro Local at Triple C Brewing Company: We can't say enough about the reasons you should support small businesses (For more, click here), so just trust us and check out this Small Business Saturday event. The one-day-only pop up event will feature local and regional small businesses. There's food samples, holiday gift ideas, music and more. Free admission. Nov. 29, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Triple C Brewing Company, 2900 Griffith St. www.facebook.com/shopmicrolocal.
Su Casa at Petra's Piano Bar & Cabaret: The Su Casa crew pays homage to the sounds of classic soul, which means cuts by artists like Rufus & Chaka Khan, Donny Hathaway, Stevie Wonder, Curtis Mayfield, Diana Ross and more. DJ Justice Asaru-Re Uzn is on the turntables and there's also a special live performance. Also featuring visual art, face painting, photography and more. $5 before 11 p.m.; $10 after 11 p.m. Nov. 29, 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. Petra's Piano Bar and Cabaret, 1919 Commonwealth Ave. 704-332-6608. www.petraspianobar.com.
Tripping at Central Station: A $5 cover gets you free light diffraction glasses, a specialty drink menu, bugged-out visuals, music and more. Central Station, 2131 Central Ave. Nov. 29, 10 p.m. to 2 a.m.
Movember Mustache Bash at Tin Roof: To raise awareness for men’s health — including prostate and testicular cancer and mental illness — the month of November is better known as “No Shave November,” a time when men show their support with facial hair. This year, Charlotte Checkers players and staff members have set their razors aside for the cause. They’ll show off the hairy results at this post-game bash at Tin Roof with prizes and drink specials. Nov. 30, 4 p.m. Tin Roof, 210 East Trade St., Suite 286.
