Statesville’s Night Out 2026: A Night of Community, Connection, and Fun!

Downtown Statesville was filled with excitement, laughter, and community spirit on Thursday, October 8, 2026, as the Statesville Police Department (SPD) welcomed residents and families for another memorable Statesville’s Night Out!

A fantastic crowd came out to enjoy an evening of food, fun, and fellowship, all while strengthening the connections between law enforcement and the community we proudly serve.

Bringing Our Community Together

From family-friendly activities and delicious food to conversations with officers and community partners, Statesville’s Night Out offered something for everyone!

The event provided an opportunity for residents to meet SPD officers in a relaxed, welcoming environment, ask questions, explore community resources, and get to know the people behind the badge.

While the activities brought plenty of smiles, the real highlight was seeing neighbors, families, officers, and community organizations come together for a shared purpose: building relationships and creating a safer, stronger Statesville.

A Special Thank You to Our Community Partners

An event like Statesville’s Night Out wouldn't be possible without the incredible support of our community partners!

We extend a heartfelt thank-you to the businesses, organizations, volunteers, and community groups who contributed their time, resources, and energy to make this year's event such a success.

Your continued partnership helps us create meaningful opportunities to connect with the people we serve.

A special thank you goes to the North Carolina Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 10, whose members stepped up to handle the cooking for this year's event! Their generosity gave SPD officers a well-deserved break from the grill and the opportunity to spend more time enjoying the evening, interacting with residents, and building relationships throughout the community.

We truly appreciate everyone who helped bring this special night together!

Thank You, Statesville!

To everyone who joined us, THANK YOU!
