Willie Nelson singing

The Outlaw Music Festival played Radians Amphitheater at Memphis Botanic Garden on Friday, June 27, 2025, as part of the festival’s 10th-anniversary tour. Willie Nelson & Family headlined alongside Bob Dylan, with Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, Trampled by Turtles and Tami Neilson filling out the bill.

This show has already taken place. Memphis is not on the 2026 Outlaw Music Festival route — the 11th-anniversary tour runs 12 dates between July 3 and August 30, 2026, and none of them is in Tennessee. If you are looking for a current date, see the 2026 lineup, dates and tickets guide.

One note on timings: Memphis Botanic Garden listed the event window as 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Central, while AXS listed a 4:00 p.m. start for the same date. Per-artist set times were never published, so we are not going to guess at them.

Who played Memphis

Setlists varied night to night on the 2025 tour, and no official setlist was published for the Memphis date. We have not reconstructed one from memory or social posts.

What the venue asked fans to bring

These were the policies Memphis Botanic Garden published for the show. They are specific to this 2025 date and are worth checking again for any future event at the venue:

  • General admission fans were told to bring their own lawn chairs.
  • Coolers and outside food or drink were not allowed.
  • Gold Section tickets, covering Sections B through F, included access to Sara’s Place — an indoor area with air conditioning, a full-service bar and premium restrooms.

How tickets were sold

Citi cardholders had presale access from February 4 to February 6, 2025. General tickets went on sale February 7, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. through Ticketmaster. VIP packages with premium seating and merchandise were offered. Face-value prices for this date are no longer published, and we do not quote figures we cannot source.

Will the Outlaw Music Festival return to Memphis?

Not announced yet. The confirmed 2026 route covers Texas in early July and a Midwest-to-Northeast run through August, ending in Saratoga Springs, New York, on August 30. There is no Memphis stop on it. If a Memphis date is added to a future tour, it will be announced by the promoter, Blackbird Presents, and by the venue — not before.

Where this information comes from

Date, venue, address, event window, promoter, lineup and venue policies are taken from the Memphis Botanic Garden event listing and the AXS event page for the same date. The 2026 tour route is taken from Blackbird Presents, the festival’s promoter.
