FedExForum The Home of The Tigers

The 2018-19 season marks the 15th for the Tigers in their home arena, FedExForum, which officially opened in September, 2004. Located just a few feet off on historic Highway 61, FedExForum rises to extend the heart of the Memphis entertainment district. Memphis plays all of its 2017-18 home contests in the 18,400-seat are- na, which is serving as the host site for 2019 American Athletic Conference Championship. It also is the site for the 2021 NCAA South Regional. Since it opened in 2004, FedExForum has hosted six Conference USA Tournaments, three NCAA Men’s South Regionals (2009, 2014, 2017), one American Ath- letic Conference Tournament and one NCAA Women’s South Regional (2010). At 135 feet high, FedExForum provides a new backdrop for historic Beale Street. The 805,850 square-feet arena, covering 13.8 acres, features five lev- els as well as state-of-the-art locker rooms and facilities for sports teams, as well as an exceptional dining and entertainment experiences for its patrons.
