Let Us Design Your Ultimate Group Experience in North Carolina

With North Carolina DMC services by Spark by Design, A Hosts Global Member, your guests will experience a state where urban sophistication meets southern charm — and where mountain peaks, rolling vineyards, historic districts, and sun-soaked beaches create endless opportunities for extraordinary group programs.

North Carolina is a dynamic, multi-city destination rich with culture, innovation, and natural beauty. Whether you’re hosting a high-impact conference in Charlotte, a wellness retreat in Asheville, a university-inspired program in The Triangle, a corporate gathering in The Piedmont, or a coastal celebration along Wilmington or the Outer Banks, Spark by Design curates experiences that are polished, seamless, and deeply connected to place.

Why North Carolina?

A State with Remarkable Variety

North Carolina is famous for its diversity. Within a few hours, groups can transition from skyscraper views to mountain overlooks to Atlantic shoreline. This geographic variety gives planners incredible creative flexibility — from luxury retreats to large-scale meetings to incentive adventures with a sense of wonder.

Effortless Access Across the State

With international airports in Charlotte and Raleigh-Durham — plus regional access across the state — North Carolina is exceptionally easy to navigate for attendees arriving from across the country.

A Culture Rooted in Warmth & Craft

Southern hospitality is at the heart of the North Carolina experience. From the culinary scene to the breweries, from the arts to the live music traditions, the state’s culture infuses every gathering with authenticity and warmth.

Group Experiences Across North Carolina

Charlotte: Skyline Views, Culinary Creativity & Southern Sophistication

Charlotte shines as North Carolina’s modern metropolis — a hub for finance, sports, arts, and innovation. The city blends sleek high-rises with tree-lined neighborhoods, craft breweries, and a thriving culinary scene.

With Spark by Design, groups can enjoy rooftop receptions overlooking the skyline, NASCAR-inspired events, private experiences at art museums, or teambuilding in the city’s lush outdoor spaces. From Uptown to South End, Charlotte delivers contemporary energy with classic southern charm.

Perfect for: Conferences, corporate meetings, brand activations, and culinary-themed programs.

Asheville: Mountain Beauty, Wellness Energy & Artistic Spirit

Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Asheville is a destination that feeds the soul. Its mix of mountain scenery, historic architecture, indie arts, and craft breweries creates a setting ideal for groups seeking creativity and rejuvenation.

Host executive retreats at scenic resorts, plan wellness sessions on mountain terraces, explore the iconic Biltmore Estate, or enjoy private culinary experiences featuring farm-fresh Appalachian flavors.

Perfect for: Wellness retreats, incentive programs, executive gatherings, and outdoor adventures.

The Triangle (Raleigh, Durham & Chapel Hill): Innovation, Academia & Cultural Depth

The Triangle pairs intellectual energy with southern warmth. Home to major universities and research hubs, this region blends academic prestige with culinary innovation, arts experiences, and modern event venues.

With our North Carolina DMC services, groups can host meetings in state-of-the-art spaces, enjoy curated brewery or food hall tours, or plan offsites in the bustling arts districts of Durham or the historic charm of Chapel Hill.

Perfect for: Association meetings, educational programs, leadership summits, and innovation-focused events.

The Piedmont (Greensboro, Winston-Salem & High Point): Heartland Hospitality & Cultural Heritage

The Piedmont brings together history, creativity, and genuine southern hospitality. High Point is famous for its design and furniture industry; Winston-Salem blends arts, innovation, and historic Moravian character; and Greensboro offers parks, museums, and modern meeting venues.

With accessible cities, charming downtowns, and warm community spirit, the Piedmont region is ideal for groups seeking connection in a relaxed yet professional setting.

Perfect for: Mid-size conferences, cultural programs, and multi-city itineraries.

The Beaches (Wilmington & the Outer Banks): Coastal Calm & Atlantic Beauty

North Carolina’s coast delivers the kind of natural beauty that refreshes and inspires. Wilmington blends riverfront charm with pristine beaches just minutes away, offering scenic venues and cinematic backdrops for events.

Farther north, the Outer Banks provide wide-open shores, towering dunes, heritage lighthouses, and unmatched serenity — an ideal escape for groups seeking renewal.
