October 11 to 17, 2026
LGBTQ Business Week is back for its second year! One week, one mission: celebrate the LGBTQ+ owned and operated businesses that make the Mid-South thrive, alongside the ally businesses who stand with our community year-round.
What It Is
Last year, Memphis launched its first-ever LGBTQ Business Week! A citywide celebration spotlighting how inclusive entrepreneurship strengthens our regional economy and community. This October, we’re doing it again, bigger and better.
For one full week, participating businesses across Tennessee, Mississippi, and Arkansas will roll out special deals, unique offerings, and a warm welcome to everyone in our community and beyond.
Who’s Featured
- LGBTQ+ owned and operated businesses
- Ally businesses that champion diversity, equity, and inclusion in the Mid-South
How Businesses Can Participate
It’s free to join. Participating businesses get:
- A featured spot in our LGBTQ Business Week promotions
- Inclusion in citywide marketing across the chamber’s channels
- A chance to connect with new customers who want to support inclusive, local business
How the Community Can Get Involved
Shop, dine, and support all week long. Follow along on our event calendar and social channels to find participating businesses and their special offers as they’re announced.
