Getting to uptown Charlotte for ChosenCon 2026

Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) is the nearest major airport, approximately 15 minutes from the convention center. The Charlotte Convention Center is also accessible via public transportation and offers nearby parking options.

If you want to avoid driving, the LYNX Blue Line runs between uptown Charlotte and I-485 along South Boulevard, with convenient stops at the Convention Center, and at the Carson and Brooklyn Village stations. You can buy tickets at vending machines on the platform or through the CATS-Pass app.

For rideshare, such as Uber or Lyft, you should plan to get dropped off or picked up outside the convention center entrance on South College Street.
