About the event
The Novant Health Charlotte Marathon is coming through NoDa — and we’re setting up an official cheer station at Local Loaf to bring the energy for the runners as they hit miles 21–22! Join us to cheer, make signs, and show off NoDa spirit! We’ll be set up outside Local Loaf with music from DJs from Radical Grove, signs, and plenty of good vibes as runners push through the final stretch of the marathon. Bring your friends, family, and your loudest cheers!
