About this Arena:
Welcome to FedExForum in Memphis—the dynamic home of the Grizzlies and a venue that’s as rich in character and experience as the city itself. Here’s your insider’s look at what makes visiting this arena so special, from culture and design to eats, sights, and vibes:

Tribute to Memphis Music: The arena’s interior is a visual love letter to Memphis’s music legacy—stunning murals of Elvis Presley, B.B. King, Justin Timberlake, and more, surround your experience. Even restaurant names reflect the city’s rich musical genres like Rock ‘n’ Roll, Blues, and Gospel.

First-Ever Transparent Shot Clocks: FedExForum led the NBA in installing see-through shot clocks—so fans seated behind the basket enjoy uninterrupted views of the action. Now, every NBA arena has followed suit.
