Getting there

Nearest airport MEM.

How do I get to Juke Joint Festival?

By car

Most people drive to Juke Joint Festival. The nearest major airport is MEM, and from there it is a straightforward drive to the venue. Check current road and traffic conditions before you set off, and see parking below.

By train

No direct passenger rail to the venue was found. Drive, fly in, or use a shuttle instead.

By bus & public transit
Greyhound (Memphis-to-Clarksdale route)~1.5-2 hr Memphis-to-Clarksdale by coach, plus the MEM-to-Memphis-terminal connector · from ~$26-30 one-way (Memphis-Clarksdale leg)

MEM is ~75 road miles from Clarksdale with no direct airport connector. Greyhound runs up to 2x/day from the Memphis terminal (not the airport itself) to Clarksdale pair with a short rideshare/taxi hop from MEM to the Memphis Greyhound stop first

Book / info →
Taxi & rideshare
Clarksdale Limo Service; Oxford Executive Transportation (Clarksdale Limo)~1.5 hr by car · call for quote

Two locally-advertised private shuttle/limo operators specifically market MEM-airport-to-Clarksdale runs (not Uber/Lyft standard rideshare apps do not reliably cover the ~75-mile Delta leg). These are independent commercial operators, not an official festival or airport shuttle

Book / info →

Taxis and rideshare such as Uber and Lyft can be limited near the venue, especially late at night or in rural areas. Agree a pickup point and time in advance and keep a backup plan.

🅿 Parking

Given the Saturday street closures, attendees are effectively pushed to park outside the historic downtown core and walk in. RV/self-contained-vehicle parking is handled separately via the festival's dedicated RV/camping sites (see camping_deep_dive), not general day parking

🚙 Car hire

Compare car hire at MEM

MEM has full-service rental counters in its Ground Transportation Center; with no public transit or rail reaching Clarksdale and only a thin bus/private-shuttle option, car hire is the most flexible route for fly-in attendees, especially those planning to reach the outlying Stovall/Hopson RV sites
