"One of the best places on earth! Friendly people, live music, and an adorable town square where the community can come together and have fun. Morganton people take care of their town and it shows. Come check out our beautiful amphitheater and enjoy one of our Friday night concerts during the summer or stop by for our fall festival. As a matter of fact, stop by anytime of year and you're sure to have a charming experience."

"Once the governmental focal point of the county, the Historic Courthouse has since become a hub of cultural and community events, highlighted by the free concert series on the lawn every Friday night throughout the summer. The new minted outdoor stage is a beautiful music venue for a small town in Southern Appalachia. I hope the other historic buildings in the downtown area remain as cherished and well-preserved."
