The Carolina Panthers and Charlotte FC will host the 11th annual Tree Lighting Festival on Tuesday, November 26 at Bank of America Stadium. This Charlotte tradition invites families and fans from across the Carolinas to enjoy an evening filled with holiday-themed activities, as the two organizations illuminate a 50-foot-tall tree from Sugar Mountain Nursery in Banner Elk, N.C. North Carolina is the second largest holiday tree-producing state in the U.S., with approximately 96% of the state’s trees grown in the mountainous regions of Western North Carolina, a region severely impacted by Hurricane Helene. This year, vendors from that area will be showcased along the concourse in collaboration with Explore Asheville.
