Bars & Nightlife

The neon-lit Beale Street is where greats like Louis Armstrong and B.B. King performed and helped create the music style known as Memphis Blues. In 1977, the U.S. Congress officially recognized Beale Street as “Home of the Blues.” For a quintessential dose of Beale Street, head to Rum Boogie or B.B. King’s Blues Club.
