Welcome to Memphis, Tennessee

Blues and rock 'n roll music have given Memphis a permanent place on America's cultural map. Historical sites focusing on music legends of the past include Elvis Presley's Graceland and B.B. King's first performance venue, Beale Street. Memphis is also renowned for its barbecue, with styles like wet ribs, dry-rub ribs and pulled pork sandwiches dominating local culinary tradition. Memphis in May is the best time to get a sampling of the city's food and musical legacy, with events like the World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest and the Beale Street Music Festival drawing tens of thousands of visitors.
