Beale Street Music Festival successfully kicks off at new Tom Lee Park location.

Memphis in May and Beale Street Music Festival are returning to Tom Lee Park for the first time since 2019, with tourism officials optimistic for their economic impact despite expecting a smaller crowd. Hotels are in demand, but there appear to be several vacancies. Organizers have limited attendance due to park construction and moved one of the stages to Beale Street. Despite the changes, officials hope to continue the profitable trend of the festival for the city of Memphis.

Memphis in May officials have capped the capacity at 22,000 for this year's event.
