There is no way around it, it is HOT in the Carolinas this summer. It was in the mid-90s all last week and will be there the rest of this week as well. There are only so many things you can do inside to entertain yourself or your kids and let’s face it it’s just too miserable to be outside. At this temperature, I can’t even lay out at the pool, it’s get in the water of bust. And forget that afternoon rail trail walk or outdoor dining. So if you’re like me and don’t want to sit at home, but instead want to beat the heat this is the list for you. I’ve scoured the internet for 26 indoor activities for you to have fun while staying cool this summer in Charlotte.

All of these activities have one main thing in common. And that one thing is air conditioning. Because when it’s 95 degrees outside nothing else will cut it! Indoors is also helpful when that oh-so-common summer storm pops up. So no getting wet (unless by choice) here.

On this list you’ll find a variety of activities some for kids and adults alike, others geared more towards just adults. Tap into your creative side, your adventurous side, or just relax and enjoy. Many offer the chance to have a cold drink but aren’t drinking-focused. Instead, you’ll find indoor activities in Charlotte that are sure to entertain and break up the monotony that the summer heat can often bring. Hopefully, this list will be helpful and you’ll find something new to try or remember an old favorite you’d forgotten about. Try one of these activities. Let us know! Stay cool out there this summer, Charlotte (it will be winter and we will be begging for warmer days before we know it).
