WTD

Worth The Drive is the monthly regional companion to Port City Lowdown's weekly Wilmington digest. Once a month — last Sunday — we publish a curated roundup of events from across the broader Carolinas region that are worth the gas and drive time.

Coverage stretches roughly Raleigh and Durham to the north, Charleston to the south, Charlotte to the west, and the Crystal Coast and Outer Banks to the northeast. If a touring act, festival, or major event is hitting the Carolinas and we think it's worth the trip out from Wilmington, it lands here.

When to expect the next edition

WTD publishes the last Sunday of each month. Each edition covers events happening over roughly the next 30-45 days across the broader Carolinas region. Past editions stay live in the archive — the events themselves expire but the picks remain a useful read for planning the next month's road trips.
