Internationally known for its musical heritage, the city is home to Beale Street, Sun Studio and Graceland, alongside live music venues, museums, professional sports and a restaurant scene famous for Memphis-style barbecue. The NBA's Memphis Grizzlies provide major-league sports downtown, while festivals and events keep the city's entertainment calendar busy throughout the year.
