The county seat, where US-45 becomes the Rockabilly Highway and downtown still throws a proper festival.
Selmer is the seat of McNairy County and the county's downtown: courthouse square, historic storefronts, murals celebrating the music that rolled down US Highway 45, and the mile-long Trail of Music Legends through the historic district.
It's also the county's festival stage — the Rockabilly Highway Revival brings live music downtown each June, the Farmers Market runs in season on Front Street, and fall means the Harvest Festival with pumpkins, artisans and food trucks. Add local diners, coffee, and the Latta Theater's shows, and Selmer earns a full day easily.
Walk the Trail of Music Legends through downtown and snap photos at the Rockabilly Highway murals along US-45.
