The Beale Street Music Festival is the opening event of Memphis In May each year, and currently Memphis’ largest outdoor music festival, involving three stages, a tent and a small mini-stage, and three full days of music in Tom Lee Park. There are also all kinds of merchandise tents, and plenty of good food and drink. Although the event is usually harassed by rain, this year the gates opened on Friday May 4 to plenty of sunshine and an unseasonable 90 degrees.
