Labor Day weekend is finally upon us! There are so many things that you can possibly do! I know that many people are probably heading out of town, but did you know that there’s plenty of things that you can do around town as well? Check out the 23rd Annual Memphis Music and Heritage Festival at the Center for Southern Folklore on September 4 and 5.

The Memphis Music and Heritage Festival is a prime event for music aficionado’s around the world. Memphis is sharing it’s gift of music, so it’s only right that you take advantage of this FREE offer. There are 30 + performers performing on the three outside stages and two stages inside the Center for Southern Folklore over the two days of the festival. So that means none stop music!

The great thing about Memphis music is that it’s so diverse. On the five stages at the festivals, you’ll bear witness to blues, jazz, gospel, rockabilly, soul and much more.  You’ll also be privy to cooking demonstrations, dance performances, storytellers, quilters, baseball players, musicians and more talking about their crafts in a relaxing setting, and a host of other activities.

The festival is about 30 minutes from Country Squire East Apartments, so you may want to leave a little bit earlier in order to avoid traffic.
