Cooper-Young Festival


Arts and crafts festival
Cooper Street and Young Street
Memphis, TN 38104
United States
+1 901 276 7222
http://www.cooperyoung.com/
The Cooper-Young neighborhood is inhabited by a mix of artists and young professionals, and it includes more than its share of coffee bars, galleries and trendy restaurants. Each fall, an arts and crafts festival fills the neighborhood's streets and draws visitors from across the Mid-South area. Craftsmen exhibit and sell their wares, including pottery, metal works, sculpture and tie-dyed clothing. Local bands entertain on two stages, and area restaurants sell fare, such as corn dogs and funnel cakes, plus lots of beer.

Ice hockey is a relatively new import to the sunny South, but this exciting game of rapid scoring and rough-and-tumble play caught on with Memphians very quickly.

Promotional events include a USD50,000 giveaway chance at weekday games. Games are held most weekend nights and some mid-week evenings from November to mid-March. Ticket prices vary.
