Memphis

Memphis, TN

This ain't no vacation. It's a #Soultrip with Art & Soul. Memphis is just not your typical Southern city; it's a hub of the Mighty Mississippi River, Rail, Road and Runway. The history, outdoors and experiences is globally recognised calling cards in both music and food, alongside deep culture and history. Barbecue is a major part of our identity, but Memphis also has Michelin-recognised restaurants, including Bib Gourmand mentions, which is still relatively new for the American South.

Things to do


 Start with our picks for the best experiences and activities of the season (as fall gives way to winter, that might be Memphis Grizzlies games at FedExForum, applause-worthy performing arts and our favorite ways to celebrate Black History Month). Explore vacation possibilities by interest, whether you’re curious about our live music and nightlife scene, 60+ attractions, civil rights landmarks or world-famous barbecue.

Music


 Memphis music is authentic, diverse and influential. Music-lovers visit to pay tribute to legends with ties to the city, including Elvis Presley, B.B. King, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis Aretha Franklin and Isaac Hayes. And they visit to experience the city that continues to inspire modern-day musicians, from Three 6 Mafia, Justin Timberlake and Julien Baker to Al Green. For this reason, Memphis attractions and activities present one-of-a-kind musical experiences.

Only in Memphis, you can listen to live blues on historic Beale Street, hold Elvis’ mic at Sun Studio (or tour the King of Rock 'n' Roll's home, Graceland Mansion) and see Isaac Hayes’ gold-plated Cadillac at the Stax Museum of American Soul Music.

What else would you expect from the city mentioned in more than 1,000 song lyrics and titles (more than any other in the world)?

Attractions


 Beyond the music, Memphis’ 60-plus attractions and activities are some of the top things to do in Tennessee, including the National Civil Rights Museum and seven stops on the U.S. Civil Rights Trail, the world’s longest pedestrian bridge over the Mississippi River, the red-carpet marching Peabody Ducks and the world’s ninth largest pyramid. The Memphis pyramid is home to a bucket-list Bass Pro Shops complete with an indoor swamp, underwater-themed bowling and a glass-bottom observation deck overlooking the Mississippi River.

Visitors also come to Memphis for the city’s reputation as a barbecue capital. With more than 100 restaurants dedicated to the craft, two annual barbecue cooking contests and unique specialties to try – from charcoal-smoked ribs to pulled pork-studded nachos – Memphis is a city that feeds the soul. Soul food, celebrated chefs and all kinds of food festivals contribute to that reputation.
