Big Fun In Memphis This Weekend

In addition to the Canada Day celebration at Big Foot Lodge on Sunday, there are a few other fun things to do this weekend in the Memphis area. If you like free events, then you will be happy that it’s the last Friday of the month. The South Main Association will host their monthly Art Trolley Tour. South Main merchants and galleries typically open their doors and offer free snacks and adult beverages. This event is also good for people watching.

If you are up for some great 80’s college/indie music, then the Midtown Blue Monkey may be the place for you. Local band Walrus will take the stage Friday night. The guys from Walrus always put on a great show and they usually have a great crowd.

Local auto racing fans will have an opportunity to see the NASCAR Truck Series at the Memphis Motor Sports Park in Millington. The green flag will drop at the O’Rielly 200 at 8pm.
