Loved the lineup this year! Wish some of the main bands didn't play at same time though. I was disappointed that Alice in Chains and Bass Nectar played at the same time, but overall an awesome time!

Been there the last 4 years in a row.
Always have a great time.
See familiar bands and always find some new gems.

The music festival was awesome. I went more for the blues side of things but there was a diverse lineup and each performer I saw really put on a great show. The weather was horrible (cold and rainy) but if you were able to stay dry and don't mind trecking around in a mud field then you were fine.

Hall and Oates were great and the crowd was really into them. It was pretty cool when Sheryl Crow joined them. I loved ZZ TOP, Gov't Mule, Davey Knowles, Slide Brothers and Mavis Staples.

Even with all the mid and rain and cold temperatures, the festival was one of the best line-ups I have ever seen. The ease to get in was much better than previus years, location of beer tents and port a potties were well plannned. We had a great time!

This was a great outdoor concert. It rained, but it was still awesome. Alice in Chains was great. Memphis is a fun city to be in. Everything was just a lot of fun.

BSMF is an awesome festival for the price! Compared to similar sized festivals with wry similar artists-like Forecastle-this one takes the cake with many genres and acts. Be sure to bring rain boots!

Apparently Beale Street Festival gets rained on every year, and this was no exception. That creates tons of mud, so you must devise various strategies on what to see and when if you've forgotten your rain boots. (You definitely need boots if you want to see them all.) We loved Mavis Staples, the Wallflowers, Patti Smith, Ronnie Baker Brooks, Vintage Trouble, Gov't Mule, and Heritage Blues Orchestra, among others. Definitely check out new bands and local bands, as you may find a great new artist to follow.

The entertainment arrangement dominated! Very energized and well scheduled lineup. Only because of the rain and mud (every day) did I rate this event a 4 star. Although, I could never imagine this event being trapped indoors. Overall, the Beale St Music Festival rocked!!

I really enjoyed my time in Memphis, which included three days at the Beale Street Music Festival. Alice in Chains was AMAZING despite the cold temps and the muddy field. If you plan to attend this event in the future, you would be wise to wear a pair of rain boots & raincoat as I was told it rains just about every year.
Great time! Great music! Just an all around great festival!

We came from Columbus Ohio and would drive further next time if need be. The event was well run, great music, and decent food. Spent a good bit of time at the Blues tent, well done. Some great young talent that we had yet to see and look forward to seeing them again.

Memphis in May this year was cold, wet, and miserable but it was so worth it. Three Days Grace, Papa Roach. Bassnector, Porter Robertson, and Vintage Trouble rocked it. Have been going for 3 years now and I'm going to continue going rain or shine (except next time I'm packing my rain boots.)

The low, low price ($75) combined with the amazing 2013 line up sold me on this festival. I have been to many festivals (Bonnaroo, Forecastle, Virgin Fest etc.) but this was my first time to Beale St. The music was fantastic. I was impressed by every artist I saw. There was a nice variety of food & vendors. But I was surprised by the lack of enthusiasm in the crowd. The bands should not have to ask repeatedly for the crowd to sing, cheer, dance & just have fun. The weather was bad. It rained all 3 days & there is no shelter from the rain. The temperature never got above 55. There was always a cold wind coming off the river. Halfway through the first day the entire park was nothing but MUD! By the 2nd day it was a mud swamp that only those with knee high rubber boots could walk through without loosing their shoes in the mud. THERE IS NO ESCAPING THE MUD! I talked to several people who have gone to this festival multiple times and they all told me the same thing... It's always muddy! So this festival is not for the novice or the squeamish. This festival is for hardcore, diehard fans that will brave any conditions. That being said it is a great price for a 3 day festival with top notch artists.

It's been 5 years since I went to BSMF, so I wanted to give it another shot. Not exactly the best weekend for favorable weather or for the venue being outside. You would think the BSMF planners would have some sort of back-up plan. What about a few more picnic tables to sit at so you don't have to stand in all the mud for hours on end? Saw The Wallflowers, half of the Deftones, and had to leave before Alice in Chains. The Black Keys was my highlight-they were awesome! Sunday, saw Three Days Grace, Flaming Lips, and Smashing Pumpkins--of course, the trolley schedule wasn't inline with the latest show and had to miss the last 30-40 minutes of Pumpkins to catch the last trolley, which really sucked.
