Secret Gardens of Fourth Ward: May 18 and 19, Noon to 4 pm in historic Fourth Ward in uptown Charlotte

On May 18th and 19th, 2024, from Noon to 4 pm each day, the Friends of Fourth Ward will host the Secret Gardens of Fourth Ward, an urban garden and lifestyle tour in the heart of uptown Charlotte. From the micro to the magnificent, the tour showcases a mix of private gardens, courtyards, rooftop terraces, and unique outdoor living spaces that are rarely open to the public. This walkable, self-guided event allows tour-goers to explore these hidden oases while strolling the brick-paved sidewalks of this charming neighborhood in full bloom, complete with food and cocktail tastings at gardens and restaurants along the way. In addition to the featured gardens, the tour will highlight public art, historic homes, and special points of interest along the tour route, effectively making all of Historic Fourth Ward – and the extraordinary quality of life it offers – part of the tour.

Additional Tour Attractions Include: Complimentary food and cocktail tastings in gardens and restaurants along the tour route, and live music by Leisure McCorkle. Free golf cart rides from Ride Charlotte (first-come, first served) throughout the neighborhood during tour hours. The historic 4-diamond McNinch House Restaurant will be open for tours and wines-by-the-glass for purchase. Optional docent-led tours of Historic Elmwood Pinewood Cemetery at 3:30 each day.

Hospitality Partners offering complimentary tastings include: The Asbury, The Botanist Gin, The Dunhill Hotel, Broken Shed Vodka, Herradura Tequila, Diplomatico Rum, Queen City Grounds, Sea Level, Blue Chair Bay Rum, Potts Chocolate, Pizzeria Sapienza, It’s Poppin’ Gourmet Kettle Korn, 1800 Tequila, Tin Cup Mountain Whiskey, Be Refreshed Beverage Co., Spaghett (Sunday only), and more.
