no matter the season.

Silky O’Sullivans diver bucket on Beale Street where you’re sure to spoil your
New Year’s Resolution within minutes—and love every minute of it.
Memphis in May and the Beale Street
Music Festival have become synonymous with spring not only in Memphis,
but also around the country. The name band-heavy Beale Street Music
Festival features native Memphians such as Saliva and Three 6 Mafia, as
well as an annually-changing, star-studded lineup of dozens of musicians and
bands.
The flipside of Memphis in May sometimes hidden under the
music festivals’ fan-fare is it’s World
Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest,
one of the most popular barbecue contest in the country, as well as week long
events dedicated to the country the festival is themed after, which changes
annually.
When summer concedes to crisp autumn air, pay homage to
the father of the blues with the W.C. Handy
Birthday Celebration Parade down Beale Street in November
Round off the year with a holiday shopping
adventure at the Subsidium Carrousel
of Shoppes shopping extravaganza just after Thanksgiving.
Visit Memphis during the entire holiday season to enjoy bright holiday events and
festivals. Get your
tickets early for the always exiting Liberty Bowl and start a New Year off right by partying with us
at one of our many New Years Eve celebrations.
