Your NEW Favorite
OTC Tradition
Old Town Cornelius is growing, with new businesses, restaurants, gathering spaces, and community experiences bringing fresh energy downtown.
2nd Saturdays brings it all together. Held every second Saturday of the month, the event connects businesses, public spaces, artists, organizations, and activities from Smithville Park to Antiquity into one shared experience along and around Catawba Avenue.
2nd Saturdays invites you to explore Old Town at your own pace and discover something new, revisit a favorite spot, and enjoy a community tradition that offers a new reason to come back every month.
2nd Saturdays Returns in November!
We loved seeing Old Town come alive for the launch of 2nd Saturdays in September! We're taking October off as we make a few tweaks, build on what worked and get ready for what's next.
Check back soon for November plans!
