Welcome back! The Longest Table is returning to Mooresville to celebrate this year’s theme, “The Power of We.” This signature community event invites hundreds of residents to come together, share a meal, and build new relationships. The event is free to attend, but tickets are required.

Table hosts will guide meaningful conversations inspired by this year’s theme, “The Power of We.” There is power in connection between people.
“No single organization can build a thriving community alone—it takes all of us,” said Brett Eckerman, Executive Director of United Way of Iredell County. “The Longest Table is a physical representation of what happens when we unite behind a common goal. 'The Power of We' proves that when we pool our resources, time, and heart, there is no limit to the good we can accomplish for our neighbors.”
Children will also enjoy a dedicated KidZone with fun, family‑friendly activities.
Community members interested in serving as table hosts or volunteering in other roles are encouraged to sign up through United Way’s HIVE (Helping Iredell Volunteers Engage):
