About this Event
BLACK BUSINESS TRAIL
Saturday, October 3, 2026 | 10:00 AM–4:00 PM
Departing from The Wright Note Café | Raleigh, NC
Get on the bus and experience Black business across the Triangle.
The Black Business Trail is a curated, six-hour experience designed to connect you directly with businesses, entrepreneurs, their stories, and the communities they're building in.
We'll travel throughout the Triangle for 5 stops featuring 10 businesses, giving you an opportunity to discover businesses you may not know, hear directly from the entrepreneurs behind them, shop, connect, and experience a taste of what each stop has to offer.
This isn't simply a tour of Black business history. It's an opportunity to experience Black business happening right now—and intentionally put our attention, relationships, and dollars behind the entrepreneurs building today.
