BOOM Charlotte, the eclectic arts festival created by artists to showcase innovative work and emerging artists is back at it again, this year at Camp North End (1824 Statesville Ave.) for a three-day run beginning Friday, April 21 (5pm to 10pm), continuing Saturday, April 22, (12pm to 10pm) and wrapping up Sunday, April 23, 12pm to 8pm

Last year BOOM relocated to Camp North End from the Plaza Midwood neighborhood. ”We forged great partnerships in Plaza Midwood, but the festival was growing, we needed more space and Camp North End was very gracious to offer us the whole campus for the weekend,” explains BOOM Charlotte Executive Director Manoj Kesavan.

With the relocation came a reduced schedule from the usual three days down to two days. Coming off of pandemic cancellations in 2020 and 2021, BOOM wanted to proceed cautiously with the return to in-person events and felt two days was more manageable for last year.
