Goldsboro, NC
Nestled in the heart of eastern NC between Raleigh and the coast, we are a destination with rich culture and heritage. Our heritage has deep military and agricultural roots. And, let us not forget to mention our legendary BBQ! We sum up ourselves with 3 Ps: pigs, pickles, and planes!
We are the proud home to Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, one of the best (and oldest!) fighter communities in the world, Mt. Olive Pickle Company, Cliffs of the Neuse State Park, award-winning historic downtown, Center Street Jam Summer Concert Series, NC Pickle Festival and North Carolina’s largest free air show, Wings Over Wayne.
Our county is located on the NC Barbeque Society Historic Trail and the Mountains To Sea Trail, which is the perfect blend. Because after you eat the best BBQ of your life and wash it down with sweet tea or craft beer, you’re going to thank us for having a way to burn it all off! Looking for a more international flavor? Wayne County has a constantly growing international food scene that will have you traveling the world without having to find your passport.
Live music every weekend, food trucks, historic sites, farm tours, public art, craft beer, boutique shops, signature restaurants, F-15E Strike Eagles soaring across the sky (no big deal!)…there are so many things to do in Goldsboro-Wayne County! Experience a destination like no other, and reconnect with your sense of adventure, all here in the heart of Eastern, North Carolina. Plan your visit today!
