  3. The Biscuit Has You (Pretty Much) Covered at Charlotte SHOUT!

Charlotte SHOUT! is upon us, and make no mistake, this festival is packed to the gills with creative-offerings-a-plenty spanning the realms of art, music, food and ideas.

Of course, you’re only one person, right? Which means you can’t be in two, three or four places at once. So how on Earth will you decide what to you should catch at SHOUT!?

Well, rest easy, good Charlottean. We here at The Biscuit are providing you some cover in the form of The Biscuit Lounge – which will be located near the corner of S. Tryon Street and W. 4th Street, May 9-11.

Okay, we’re not providing you “cover,” per se – since this modular, colorful, LED-lit, is-this-place-from-the-future-or-what structure known as “The Biscuit Lounge” doesn’t technically have a roof. (In the future, there will be no precipitation.) But, it’ll be the kind of place where you’ll want to raise the proverbial roof.

Check In at The Biscuit Lounge

It’ll look something like this:

 

The Biscuit Lounge will serve as a hub where our “Creative Correspondents” will check in as they report on SHOUT! events and activities Thursday through Saturday. You can follow their adventures by checking in on the hashtags #CLTShout and #CharlotteIsCreative.

And, you can use it as your base of operations, too. We’ll have SHOUT! schedules and on-screen agendas so you can plan your activities for the day and decide on the next amazing thing to go see or experience.

Then, there’s the DJs …

To boot, it’ll also feature a bangin’ line-up of local DJs curated by Tip Top Daily Market. NOTE: The schedules below are subject to change.

Oh, and then there’s the beer … and the music … and the dancing …

Oh what, you want more? Fiiiiiiiiiine. How about delicious craft beer from Divine Barrel Brewing being poured 6-8pm on Thursday and Friday, and 12-3pm on Saturday? You got it.

  • On Thursday from 6:30-8pm, Hola Charlotte will bring Latino Dancing to the streets – featuring Samba from Brazil, Mexico folkloric dancers, Cumbia from Colombia, Salsa from PR, Joropo from Venezuela, and Tango from Argentina.
  • And, on Saturday from 6:15-7pm, Charlotte electronic quartet up/dn will play a set featuring songs from their latest release entitled “Wild Forces.”

Let’s Chill Together in The Lounge

Basically, our point here is this: don’t be overwhelmed by all the creative awesomeness of Charlotte SHOUT! The Biscuit has you covered, more or less, at The Biscuit Lounge. Come on by, hang out, chat us up, hear some music, get your groove on, drink some beer, and get yourself all informed-and-such about all-things-SHOUT!
