Summer in Memphis

We’re excited to find the adventure of a Memphis summer together!

There are lots of great things to do throughout the city, and plenty of wonderful people in the VISA community to make memories with. There won’t be many official VISA events during the summer months, but there’s still plenty to do, and meaningful connections to make! Whether it’s trying out a new restaurant or coffee shop with a friend, catching a free outdoor concert at Overton Park Shell, riding bikes across the Big River Crossing bridge, catching a show at The Orpheum, or an Outdoor Movie, or playing pickleball or volleyball, or camping/hiking through Shelby Forrest State Park, or trying something completely new that you thought you’d never do from This List of 365 Things to Do In Memphis… there are plenty of memories to be made this summer. So, grab a friend and let’s go! 💫 🏃💨
