Beale Street Music Festival

Memphis in May has moved to Handy Park, which has allowed organizers to offer more of its famous blues lineup to a much wider audience. There will be three main stages that will be at Tom Lee Park. Just as in the past, festival ticket holders will have a reserved choice of seating at the Blues Stage on Beale. As many will agree, Blues music is a big and beloved part of our city’s heritage. The Blues music has been part of us all for generations, but did you know that the Beale Street Music Festival was born on non-other but Beale Street? As the Blues is such a major part of our community, it is important that it can be open to everyone who wants to come and see! Each year the festival has grown and more and more talented Blues music artists have joined in. Therefore, the festival has grown to one of a kind blues musical events in the U.S. Following is the lineup of Blues artists that has signed up so far this year.
