Make the Most of a November Weekend on the Outer Banks

Before the holiday hustle begins, take advantage of a November weekend filled with live music, oysters, a little mystery and plenty of reasons to get out and enjoy the coast.

If you're hoping to spend this mid-November weekend catching some live music and spending time with friends, the Outer Banks has a pretty good lineup. From a bluegrass festival and a Mexican rodeo celebration to an oyster-themed restaurant adventure and a little theatrical suspense, there's something for just about everyone.
