Travel Haiku - Madness In Memphis

May in Memphis the music steals our heart the food our stomach May in Memphis we learn to take one thing at a time May in Memphis the only thing we fear not functioning ourselves May in Memphis we go mad over the festivals May in Memphis the month you can change the last letter to D May in Memphis means festivals. The Beale Street Music Festival from May 2 to 4 will feature big-name artists like Aretha Franklin, Santana, and The Roots. Next up, learn about the culture of this year's chosen country, Turkey, during International Week, with educational programs, performances, chef demonstrations, and art exhibits. And from May 15 to 17, save up your appetite for the World Championship Barbeque Cooking Contest where teams compete for the juiciest, tastiest grilled pork and the most outrageously decorated grill to win over $90,000 in prizes.
