For one week, Charlotte becomes the center of the soccer world. The 2026 MLS All-Star Game hits Bank of America Stadium next Wednesday — MLS All-Stars vs. Liga MX — with the Skills Challenge at Truist Field the night before, all just 10 days after the World Cup wraps. We dig into what a spotlight week really means for the city's hotels, restaurants, and big-event ambitions. Plus: yesterday's heavy rain, Panthers camp and the construction limiting fan access, a loaded concert weekend, and the kickoff of Queen's Feast — Charlotte Restaurant Week.
