Charlotte Creative Loafing was started in 1987 by the founders of Creative Loafing in Atlanta as their first venture into other markets. Over the years, CL has made its distinctive mark in the Charlotte market by emphasizing quality writing, hard hitting stories, and the most complete arts, entertainment and events listings in the area.

Charlotte Creative Loafing serves the entire Charlotte metropolitan area, distributing 58,000 papers and reaching more than 252,300 readers weekly. The Loaf runs from approximately 88 to 96 tabloid-size pages per week.

Over the past 14 years, Creative Loafing has steadily upped its presence in the city through the quality of its arts and entertainment coverage, its fearless approach, and its ever-growing commitment to hard-hitting news and investigative reporting. Fifteen years after its launch, Creative Loafing has become the must-read paper for anyone who wants to know what's really going on in this New South metropolis. Charlotte Loaf has repeatedly won statewide journalism awards and has become the most talked about publication in the city. And we're just getting cranked up.

Creative Loafing, Inc. also publishes Creative Loafing - Atlanta, and Weekly Planets in Tampa and Sarasota, Florida.
