🔨 SNEAK PEEK: The Metal Museum’s brand new home in Overton Park is almost here.

Memphis’ , the only museum in the entire world dedicated to fine metalwork, is moving from the bluff into the former Memphis College of Art building (all the nostalgic feels here!), and the transformation is going to be incredible.

Here’s what’s coming:
🏛️ Three times the size of the current space
🌟 Expanded galleries & exhibition space
🔥 Visible metalworking studios where you can watch artists work in real time
🍽️ Full-service restaurant + rooftop terrace overlooking Overton Park
🌿 Free outdoor Sculpture Walk open to the public
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Free Family Fun Days & expanded community programming

Founded in 1979, the Metal Museum has been a Memphis treasure for over four decades. This new space is going to cement our city as THE global destination for metal arts!

📅 Opening September 5, 2026

Redbirds season is here and the Party Deck just leveled up. 🌭⚾️

walked up to the Heavenly Hot Dog Buffet and immediately went crazy with the pico, BBQ sauce, bacon bits, peppers, and hot sauce. He calls it the Memphis to Mexico El Diablo Special. 🔥

That’s the beauty of 21 toppings and over 2 million possible combinations. Build it classic. Build it unhinged. Name it after yourself. Nobody’s stopping you.

Your Party Deck ticket gets you unlimited buffet access, chicken sandwiches, nachos, mac & cheese, cookies, drinks, and views of the action you won’t find anywhere else at AutoZone Park.

is closing out Season 19 with a POWERHOUSE. 🎺

August Wilson’s MA RAINEY’S BLACK BOTTOM is on stage NOW through May 10 — and this cast is not playing around. It’s 1927 Chicago, a rundown recording studio, and the “Mother of the Blues” is fighting for control of her music while her band simmers with ambition, tension, and something deeper. Rage, power, pride — it’s all in the room.
Hattiloo’s Season 19 brought Jubilee, Jaja’s African Hair Braiding, Dreamgirls, and more — and they’re going out on one of the greatest plays in the American canon. If you haven’t made it to Hattiloo yet this season, this is your moment.
