News Summary

GloRilla, the Grammy-nominated hip-hop artist, is set to host her first concert, the ‘Glo Bash,’ at FedExForum in Memphis. Scheduled just days before her birthday, the event will feature various artists from her label and special guests. With ticket sales starting soon, GloRilla’s rise in the music industry continues to draw fans. Meanwhile, the Beale Street Music Festival won’t return this year, highlighting the contrasting events in Memphis’s vibrant music scene.

Memphis – Grammy-nominated hip-hop artist GloRilla has announced her inaugural “Glo Bash” concert, scheduled for July 25, 2025, at the FedExForum in Memphis. This highly anticipated event will take place just a few days before GloRilla’s birthday on July 28, marking a significant personal and professional milestone for the rising star.

The “Glo Bash” concert will feature numerous artists from GloRilla’s label, CMG, as well as fellow Memphis rappers and special guest stars. Tickets for the event will be available to the general public starting at 10 a.m. on May 2, with prices ranging from $31.50 to $196.50. Additionally, a special artist and venue pre-sale will begin a day earlier, at 10 a.m. on May 1.

GloRilla, who recently completed her first headlining tour, is also set to perform at major events this year, including the Coachella Music Festival, HOT 97 Summer Jam in June, and the ESSENCE Festival of Culture in early July. Her growing popularity is marked by her energetic performances and collaborations with established artists in the hip-hop industry.

In a notable juxtaposition, the Beale Street Music Festival (BSMF) will not be held for the second consecutive year due to ongoing challenges. The festival, a staple of Memphis culture, was removed from its traditional location at Tom Lee Park in 2024, prompting a reimagining of the event as organizers aim to enhance attendee experiences. The BSMF is currently planned to return in the summer of 2026, while the Riverbeat Music Festival has filled the gap left by the absence of BSMF this year.

Other May events in Memphis, including the Great American River Run and the World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest, are still set to take place, reflecting the city’s vibrant event calendar despite recent challenges faced by the festival industry overall due to the impacts of COVID-19.

The concert at FedExForum not only signifies a return to live performances for GloRilla but also serves as a celebration of her roots in Memphis. With the enthusiasm surrounding the “Glo Bash,” fans can expect a memorable event that showcases local talent and underscores the city’s rich musical heritage.
