Always-on things to do in Raleigh

No tickets needed — the spots we send guests to between events.

  • Glenwood South

    Nightlife

    Glenwood South

    Raleigh's main entertainment strip — restaurants, rooftop bars, and live music — starts right at 400H's door, a natural after-session dinner or team night out.

  • Warehouse District & Morgan Street Food Hall

    Food & drink

    Warehouse District & Morgan Street Food Hall

    A food hall with ~20 local concepts, plus the breweries, restaurants, and the Videri Chocolate Factory of the booming Warehouse District — all a short walk away.

  • CAM Raleigh

    Arts

    CAM Raleigh

    The Contemporary Art Museum anchors the Warehouse District's gallery scene — a quick cultural break between sessions, a few blocks from your apartment.

  • Red Hat Amphitheater

    Music

    Red Hat Amphitheater

    Raleigh's ~6,000-seat outdoor amphitheater sits right beside the convention center — catch a 2026 summer concert after the show floor closes (a larger replacement opens a block south for 2027).

  • Fayetteville Street

    Dining

    Fayetteville Street

    Downtown Raleigh's main street is lined with restaurants and bars a few blocks east — an easy dinner before the show.

  • Raleigh Union Station

    Getting around

    Raleigh Union Station

    Amtrak (the Carolinian, Piedmont, and Floridian) is a short walk away — arrive by train and you barely need a car except for the drive to the arena.

  • Carter-Finley & the Fairgrounds

    Right next door

    Carter-Finley & the Fairgrounds

    NC State football at Carter-Finley shares the same west-Raleigh complex as the arena — pair a Canes game or concert with a Wolfpack Saturday.

  • Dorothea Dix Park

    Outdoors

    Dorothea Dix Park

    Raleigh’s sprawling 308-acre park, with skyline views and open meadows, sits between downtown and the amphitheater — an easy daytime stop before the show.

  • Glenwood South & the Warehouse District

    Pre-game

    Glenwood South & the Warehouse District

    Restaurants, rooftop bars, and the Morgan Street Food Hall start right at 400H's door — the natural spot to fuel up before the drive out to the game.

More ideas: our Raleigh event and visitor articles.
