All Months
Spring and fall hit the sweet spot - March through May and September through November give you perfect weather for walking Beale Street and touring Graceland's outdoor areas. Summer's brutal with 90-degree heat and humidity that makes you question your life choices. And Memphis in July during Elvis Week? Forget about it unless you love crowds and paying triple for hotels. Winter works if you don't mind gray skies and 40-degree days, plus you'll have the city mostly to yourself. The Memphis in May festival brings great music but also massive crowds. Book early or skip it entirely.
