End Festival week with a bang… literally! 🎆
Join us for Battleship Boom & Bloom at the historic Battleship North Carolina, the ultimate spot to take in the North Carolina Azalea Festival fireworks! With unbeatable views of the grand finale, this is the place to celebrate an incredible week.
Come hungry and ready for fun, with favorites like Glizzies on the Go and Wheelz Pizza food trucks serving up delicious eats on site. Great food, waterfront views, and a fireworks show you won’t forget… it doesn’t get much better than this! … See MoreSee Less
