Things to Do
For active people, Winston-Salem is a comfortable and accessible community with many treasures to share. Many fine artists and artisans call Winston-Salem home. Take time to explore our downtown arts district or our one-of-a-kind museums and galleries where you can see examples of fine contemporary, traditional and decorative arts. Then, take in a performance at one of our university facilities or community venues. You won’t be disappointed.
Festivals abound here too. Some even include dancing in the streets!
If sports are your interest, then Winston-Salem can address your needs. We have world-class golf courses, tennis facilities, softball and soccer complexes, two lakes for fishing and boating, as well as numerous parks and greenways.
Our citizens enjoy every opportunity to show case their hometown. Like everywhere else, local citizens really define what is special about a destination. Our people are warm, witty, and easy to engage. They will be delighted to extend to you and your family a sample of our famous Winston-Salem hospitality.
