Welcome to Memphis!

Memphis is the “Home of the Blues,” the world-famous “Beale Street,” the World Championship BBQ Contest, Graceland, The Peabody Hotel, and a variety of farmer’s markets, craft beer and fine art festivals. Whether you find yourself looking for a fun family activity during the day, or a night out to explore the city, you will never be short of things to do. If you are in Memphis during the day, visit the Memphis Zoo, Memphis Botanic Gardens, or our 30 museums. The Memphis Zoo has been in Overland Park for 100 years and has over 500 species to see! Beale Street is always lively at night, especially after the Memphis Grizzlies fans pour onto the street from FedEx stadium after a home game. If you are making evening plans, the Orpheum Theater which hosts various Broadway plays and concerts or a rooftop party at the Peabody Hotel are great options. Memphis is a beautiful city, located along the Mississippi River with a rich history, yet it finds itself on the cusp of a youthful resurgence.  Exciting things are happening here - and with a low cost of living, affordable housing, and no state income tax, Memphis is becoming the go-to city in the South!
