Spanning across 37 cities all over the world, the Bicycle Film Festival is coming to Memphis for round two! Last year’s festival was amazing and memorable as we ushered in guests from all over the south! People from Nashville to New Orleans crashed couches just to see these hand-picked films, and this year’s festival promises to have something for everyone!
Did you know that May is officially National Bike Month? The Brooks, BFF and the Memphis Center City Commission collaborated with the League of American Bicyclists for a National Bike to Work Day weekend program! Starting with routes to take you to work via bicycle, and ending with a ride from downtown to the Brooks, you’ll arrive at the museum just in time for a cash bar and complimentary bicycle valet-oh yea, and the films! But wait, there’s more! After Friday’s films, hop on two wheels and head to Murphy’s for the Bikes Rock Afterparty-free with your BFF ticket stub.
Try to get to bed for some shut-eye because Saturday’s schedule is action packed! Head to the Brooks for another feature at 1pm. After the film, head over to First Congo Church for a family-friendly block party! Enjoy art activities, BMX demos, artist sales and the infamous bicycle polo!
We know this a lot of information, but have no fear, we have laid out links below!
