GETTING READY FOR THE MEMPHIS FLING.

Wondering What to Pack for Memphis?

Good news—you probably need less than you think! Be sure to leave a little room in your suitcase for the swag bag surprises, raffle prizes, and maybe a few irresistible Memphis souvenirs.

What to Expect Weatherwise:

In June, Memphis mornings start in the mid-70s and heat up to the high 80s by afternoon. Think light, breathable clothing for garden strolls and outdoor fun. A wide-brimmed hat, comfy walking shoes, sunscreen, and sunglasses will keep you cool and protected.

Oh—and don’t forget a lightweight rain jacket or compact umbrella. Memphis weather can turn on a dime, and a quick rain shower is always a possibility.

Smart packing = more space for good stuff. We can’t wait to see you in the Bluff City! 🌿🕶️🎒
