Events in Monroe

We list events only after confirming them with the organizer.

Current listings

We don't have verified upcoming events to publish at the moment. Rather than list dates we can't confirm, we point you to the official calendars below, which are the best source for what's happening now.

Charlotte-Monroe Executive Airport is host to the City's annual Warbirds Over Monroe air show around Veterans Day weekend, according to the City of Monroe. Confirm this year's dates, admission and parking on the official site.

What each listing includes

  • Title and organizer
  • Start and end (America/New_York)
  • Venue
  • Official source and ticket link
  • Admission, if verified
  • Cancellation status
  • Date last checked

Verify an event before making travel plans

Start with the organizer’s own announcement and match the event title, date and venue across the listing and any ticket page. Check the year as well as the day; a past announcement can remain searchable. If details conflict, contact the organizer before buying or inviting others. Save the official link with your plans and confirm whether registration, admission or a separate activity reservation is needed for the experience you actually want.

Prepare for arrival and possible changes

Ask the organizer about the correct entrance, parking instructions, accessibility arrangements and any restrictions affecting your group. For an outdoor event, read the weather and cancellation policy rather than guessing what happens if conditions change. Check the official announcement again before departure and leave flexibility around the arrival and departure times. Public street-access questions belong with the responsible government department; the organizer should explain the event’s own check-in and visitor arrangements.

Distinguish city, county and nearby calendars

Use monroenc.org for City of Monroe announcements and unioncountync.gov for Union County information. Confirm which organization actually runs the event instead of assuming every listing is a city activity. Wingate and Lake Park are separate municipalities, so an event there is not a Monroe venue simply because it appears in a regional calendar. When submitting an event, provide the original organizer source and identify unresolved details clearly rather than filling gaps with estimates.

When contacting an official office or operator, state the exact destination, property or activity and the day or circumstances you are planning for. Ask which details are confirmed, which remain subject to change and where to find the current written instructions. Save the page link and your contact notes, then recheck time-sensitive arrangements before acting. If an answer concerns only one part of the plan, keep the remaining questions open rather than extending that answer to services, access or permissions it did not address.

  • Identify the specific detail that would change your decision and ask the responsible office or operator about it directly.
  • Compare the answer with the current official instructions; resolve conflicting information before booking, paying or setting a firm date.
  • Share the confirmed plan with anyone joining you and identify an alternative if the essential arrangement cannot be verified.

Frequently asked

What if two listings show different dates?
Check the organizer’s current announcement and contact them if necessary. Do not choose the date that appears most often or assume a recurring event follows last year’s schedule.
Does a calendar listing confirm ticket availability?
No. Follow the official registration or ticket link and confirm availability and terms directly. A published announcement does not reserve admission for your group.
What should I check on the day?
Recheck the organizer’s cancellation status, arrival instructions and any weather update. Confirm the venue and entrance before leaving, especially if you are combining the event with other plans.
