Birthplace of Rock 'N Roll Graceland
Considered the "Home of the Blues" and the "Birthplace of Rock ´n Roll," the city of Memphis´ musical roots run deep. However, music is just a chapter in the history, as well as the future, of the city located in the heart of Mid-America. Beale Street, located in the heart of downtown, has rapidly become the entertainment center of Memphis and visitors and locals alike enjoy the food and music offered in the various establishments. Beale Street meets the Mississippi River at Tom Lee Park, site of the annual Beale Street Music Festival. The weekend-long event is just a part of the month-long Memphis in May International Festival that also includes the World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest and the Sunset Symphony.
