Explore Midtown

Home to award-winning Memphis Zoo, historic Overton Park and buzzy nightlife and entertainment districts including the Cooper-Young Historic District, Broad Avenue Arts District, Crosstown Concourse and Overton Square Entertainment District, Midtown is a collection of local restaurants, live music venues, shops for anything from records to made-in-Memphis fashion, theaters for movies, plays and musicals, and art gallery and exhibition spaces — all of which inspire some of the city's signature events and festivals.
