Roof top parties are a Memphis tradition. Starting in the spring and running to approximately Labor Day, the Peabody Hotel and the Madison Hotel in Memphis host live music parties every Thursday night. Both roof tops are the places to be if you are single and want to meet other singles or if you are dating or married and want to take your significant other out for a fun night on the town. Both roof tops offer fantastic views of the Mississippi River and spectacular sunsets. Both parties also wind up being places where folks gather and have fun before going out later in other groups.
In addition to the Peabody and the Madison Hotel Thursday night parties, downtown Memphis has numerous other buildings with great roof top decks. Number 10 Main Street, Brinkley Plaza, the Gibson Guitar Factory, Alfred's, AutoZone Park and numerous lofts in South Main, all have spectactular roof top decks. These places may or may not host regular parties but they are great for smaller more impromptu events.
The deck at Alfred's has one of the best views of the city skyline and sits right at the corner of Third and Beale in the heart of Beale Street. So you can sit up there, enjoy a beverage or two and take in all the sights of downtown and the night life on Beale.
AutoZone Park has two party decks that mimic the roof top feel. It's just another in a long list of reasons that AutoZone Park is so well built and a regional treasure. Those decks have city views and of course great views of the game. Plus, you can buy a keg (through the Redbirds) and throw a keg party while watching a baseball game.
Downtown Memphis is a fun place to work, live and play and one of the reasons that is so are the many roof top decks.
