7th Annual VOICES FROM THE PAST welcomes back previous visitors with NEW stories, as well as, many of your favorites: Randolph Scott, John King, Thomas Polk, and the Unknown Boy.
Voices From The Past is a unique living history event that tells the stories of our Revolutionary Patriots of the 18th century, and historic milestones of the 19th and 20th centuries. Guests are invited to take a "spirited stroll" through Charlotte’s three oldest cemeteries and interact with 25 costumed portrayers as they tell the stories of the amazing men and women who made Charlotte what it is today.

Whether you are a native of Charlotte or new to the city, this is a fun event for all to learn more about our history while helping to preserve it.

Family and pet-friendly. "Who knew history could be so much fun!”
