CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Roll up thy sleeves and lend thine arm to good deeds! We’re calling all donor knights and dames-in-shining-armor to the 2025 Carolina Renaissance Festival Blood Drive happening in Huntersville, N.C.
The regal, lifesaving adventure happens on Thursday, August 14th at the Huntersville Blood Donation Center (9800 Kincey Ave.) from 1 p.m. until 7 p.m. We invite eligible blood donors in the Huntersville
and greater Charlotte Metro area to make an appointment and help build up the blood supply this summer!

Performers from this year’s Carolina Renaissance Festival will also be in attendance to greet donors and give a sneak peek of what to expect at the festival!
The American Red Cross urges all donors to give blood or platelets now to keep the blood supply strong this summer. Make July your time to help save lives.
In addition to summer fun and holidays, severe summer weather can quickly impact the ability to collect blood and platelets. Scheduling and keeping donation appointments are crucial this month to ensure blood products are constantly available in the weeks to come for all patients – including those in trauma situations that may require several lifesaving transfusions.
Make an appointment TODAY by calling 1-800-RED-CROSS, visiting RedCrossBlood.org using sponsor code ‘CarRenFest’, or downloading the Red Cross Blood Donor App!
