The Best Of The City Awards 2025 Celebration

For the eigthteenth year in a row, Elevate Lifestyle has given our readers a voice and a way to honor the top businesses, places and people in Charlotte. The Elevate Lifestyle "The Best Of The City" Awards was started in 2007 and has turned into an instant hit. The readers got to vote for their favorites in over 600 + categories, including Dining, Fashion, Fitness, Lifestyle, and Nightlife.

To officially congratulate all of the winners for 2025, we are having a huge celebration on Wednesday, November 19 from 6 pm to 9 pm at Must Be Nice in South End. This event is more of a celebration, not a formal awards presentation event. Feel free to drop in anytime doing the event.
