Welcome to Statesville, North Carolina!

 

Statesville is home to two of North Carolina's most unique and exciting festivals, the

CrossRoads PumpkinFest  and the Carolina BalloonFest.   These two festivals combined

feature great entertainment, food, arts and crafts, hot air balloons and much more.


Beyond festivals, Statesville is also home to numerous attractions and activities including

Historic Downtown Statesville, Lake Norman, NASCAR, Fort Dobbs, Love Valley, Zootastic Park,

golf, outlet shopping, unique local cuisine, museums and even gem mining.  


Statesville also serves as a gateway destination to the North Carolina Mountains, Charlotte,

Winston-Salem, Hickory furniture outlets and even the nearby Yadkin Valley and Swan Creek

Wine Regions...you'll find it all close by in Statesville.


Statesville may still be best known for it's location at the intersection of Interstate 77 and

Interstate 40, but after spending a few days in the area, you will discover why Statesville

is "where 'x' marks the spot" for fun, great food, great meetings and terrific deals.
