Mempho Music Festival 2026 Lineup: Pretty Lights, Widespread Panic, Gary Clark Jr. and More
Mempho Music Festival returns to Memphis, Tennessee from 9–11 October 2026 for its ninth edition.
Pretty Lights headline Friday before Widespread Panic play two sets on both Saturday and Sunday.
Friday: Pretty Lights and Spoon
Pretty Lights headline opening night.
Spoon, STS9, Broken Social Scene, Degenerate Breakfast and Zoë Dominguez also appear.
That’s already an interesting combination of electronic music, indie rock and jam culture.
Saturday: Widespread Panic, Gary Clark Jr. and De La Soul
Saturday brings Widespread Panic alongside Gary Clark Jr., Mike Campbell & The Dirty Knobs and De La Soul.
Maggie Rose and Dumpstaphunk are also scheduled, while Chuck Leavell appears as a special guest.
Sunday: Widespread Panic and Ziggy Marley
Widespread Panic return on Sunday.
This time they’re joined by Ziggy Marley, JJ Grey & Mofro, Fishbone, Sierra Hull, MonoNeon and Devil Train.
That gives Mempho a deliberately broad identity.
Pretty Lights, De La Soul, Spoon, Ziggy Marley and Widespread Panic would normally sit in fairly different corners of the festival market.
Here they’re part of one weekend.
When is Mempho Music Festival 2026?
Mempho takes place from 9–11 October at Radians Amphitheater at Memphis Botanic Garden.
For fans of jam bands, indie, roots music and electronic acts, the Mempho 2026 lineup has one of the most eclectic bills of the US autumn.
