History
Formerly an Event Center known as Strings & Things, Minglewood Plaza was extensively renovated in 2007. The industrial property is situated on one of Memphis' most progressive streets, Madison Avenue, in close proximity to local bars and restaurants, and is located about a mile west of the reinvigorated Overton Square. Minglewood Hall is in a neighborhood where concert goers can attend a show, leave by midnight, and then visit a nearby bar for after-hour events.
