The Memphis Symphony Orchestra does not have a permanent home yet, although a downtown performing arts center is in the works. For now, the orchestra plays in a variety of venues, from the lovely Dixon Gardens to the historic Eudora Baptist Church and the Germantown Performing Arts Center, located east of the city. Notable is the Masterworks series, which features guest soloists. The most popular concerts are the Sunset Symphony, performed on the banks of the Mississippi during the last weekend in May, and the tribute to Elvis, held around the time of his birthday in January.
