Celebrating Summertime Concerts and Classic Car Cruise-Ins to
Old-Fashioned Neighborhood Picnics and Holiday Parades.

Locust has always been called a "city with a soul," a place where history and traditions has defined our small hometown way of life. . .but Stanly County's best kept secret, with the creation of the new "downtown" Locust Town Center, has become everyone's new destination place as businesses and merchants have grown and the City itself has now become an vibrant part of the Town Center.

Every day in Locust you can enjoy great shopping and dining at our Merchant's Center, from gift and bakery shops to old fashioned hardware stores and sandwich shops. Our Farmer's Market draws people from miles around. Fridays are our traditional celebration nights -- from Classic Car Cruise-Ins and Summertime Outdoor Movies to Family Picnics and Live-Band Street Festivals in the Square.

In Locust, we never miss a holiday celebration or a chance to enjoy life to its fullest. Our "best kept" secret.
