Southern hospitality and strong banking roots

For the first time, ABA Annual Convention is coming to Charlotte, NC! This city has a clean, bustling, brand-new feeling with the intrigue of a rich history that’s older than the United States itself. In addition to its well-regarded status as a banking empire, Charlotte is known as the ultimate destination for NASCAR fans. Whether you explore the city’s quality craft beer scene, admire its art or find a hidden gem that becomes your new favorite spot – Charlotte has something for everyone.
