Memphis Grizzlies Tickets
Beale Street doesn’t slow down when the Grizzlies are in town, and neither does the ticket market. Between opening night, a roster that has been rebuilt around a new core, and a downtown arena that turns into one of the loudest buildings in the NBA when the crowd gets going, buying a seat at a Grizzlies game is part logistics puzzle and part ritual. This guide walks through where the team plays, who sells the tickets, what they tend to cost, and how to actually get downtown and into your seat without losing an hour to a parking garage line.
Why This Grizzlies Season Is Worth Your Ticket Budget
The 2026-27 season isn’t a rerun. Memphis enters the year with a roster that looks almost nothing like the one Grizzlies fans grew attached to a few seasons ago. Desmond Bane is in Orlando. Jaren Jackson Jr. was traded to Utah in February. Ja Morant, the face of the franchise for years, is now wearing a Portland Trail Blazers jersey. In their place, the front office leaned into the draft, taking Cameron Boozer with the third overall pick in June, alongside fellow rookies Karim Lopez and Richie Saunders. Zach Edey, Cedric Coward, and Jaylen Wells round out a young core that head coach Tuomas Iisalo will be shaping from the ground up in his first full season in charge.
That roster turnover changes the emotional temperature of home games this year. The Grizzlies open the regular season at home on Wednesday, October 21, against the Utah Jazz — and Jaren Jackson Jr. walks back into FedExForum in an opposing uniform on night one. It only gets more charged from there. Ja Morant returns to Memphis with the Trail Blazers for a back-to-back home set on February 6 and February 8, right in the middle of an eight-game homestand that is the longest in franchise history. That stretch, running from February 3 through February 18, also brings LeBron James and the 76ers, the Clippers, the Knicks, and the Boston Celtics through downtown Memphis. Add in an MLK Day matchup against Houston on January 18 and the start of Emirates NBA Cup play at home against Oklahoma City on November 6, and there’s a strong case that this is the most emotionally loaded slate FedExForum has hosted in years.
None of that context shows up on a seating chart. But it’s exactly why ticket prices swing so much game to game, and why the smart move is to know which games matter to you before you start shopping.
Where the Grizzlies Play: FedExForum
Every Grizzlies home game happens at FedExForum, a dome-shaped arena that anchors the Beale Street Entertainment District in downtown Memphis.
Address: 191 Beale Street, Memphis, TN 38103
The building has been the Grizzlies’ home since 2004, three years after the franchise relocated from Vancouver, and it was built at a cost of roughly $250 million. It holds around 16,600 fans for basketball, seats spread across a lower bowl, a club level with the Pinnacle Level suites, and an upper concourse that still gets remarkably loud for a building that size. The interior leans hard into Memphis’ musical identity — murals, photography, and themed spaces that reference the city’s blues and soul history line the concourses, so even a walk to the concession stand feels like it’s part of the city rather than bolted onto a generic sports box.
A few numbers worth having on hand before you go:
- Main phone: (901) 205-1234
- Box Office: (901) 205-2640 (staffed 10 a.m.–2 p.m., Monday through Thursday, for phone inquiries; window hours extend on game days)
- Ticket Sales: (901) 888-HOOP / (901) 888-4667
- Guest Relations Hotline: (901) 205-1535
The Box Office itself sits at the Main Entry Plaza on Third Street, with 18 windows for walk-up purchases and will-call pickup on event days.
The Official Ways to Buy Grizzlies Tickets
Start with the primary market before chasing a deal on the resale side — for high-demand games, official channels are often the more reliable route and protect you from inflated fees or fake listings.
Grizzlies.com/tickets is the team’s own hub for single-game tickets, season memberships, and group sales. It’s the best starting point if you want mini-plans, flex packages, or information on the Grizzlies MVP Season Ticket Member program, which includes perks like floor-access experiences and food-and-drink events tied to team promotions.
Ticketmaster is the Official Ticket Marketplace of the Memphis Grizzlies, and most single-game inventory for the regular season routes through their platform, including the interactive FedExForum seating chart so you can see sightlines before you commit to a section.
NBA.com/grizzlies also links out to primary ticketing and is worth a check during marquee-game announcements, since the team sometimes runs promotions or presale windows tied to specific nights — the Boston Celtics game on February 18, for instance, had tickets go on public sale September 1.
If your goal is simply “watch a Grizzlies game live at least once this year,” season memberships are surprisingly accessible. The team has advertised season tickets starting around $17 per game for the 2026-27 season, with sign-ups available by calling (901) 888-HOOP or through the official site.
Secondary Market: Where to Shop When Primary Tickets Are Gone
For sold-out nights, high-demand opponents, or if you want a specific section the primary market doesn’t have available anymore, the resale market fills the gap. A few names come up consistently:
- SeatGeek — Strong for comparing sections against real seat views, with listings for full-season inventory that typically populate shortly after the schedule drops in mid-August.
- StubHub — One of the larger general resale marketplaces, useful for last-minute or day-of purchases.
- Vivid Seats — Frequently used for both game tickets and FedExForum parking passes, with a rewards program that can offset some of the resale premium over time.
A word of caution on the secondary market, since it applies here as much as anywhere else: prices move with the news cycle. A Ja Morant return date or a LeBron James visit can push resale prices well above face value in the days leading up to the game, then soften slightly once the initial rush settles. If a game isn’t a must-see for you specifically, buying early or watching for a price dip a day or two out can save real money.
Group Tickets, Suites, and Special Access
FedExForum has real depth beyond standard bowl seating. There are 27 courtside suites, 32 club suites, four party suites, and roughly 80 club boxes, plus the Prime Global Group Club and Konica Minolta Club spaces on the private Pinnacle Level. Groups, corporate outings, birthday parties, and school trips are all handled through the Grizzlies’ group sales line, reachable through the same (901) 888-HOOP number used for season tickets — it’s worth calling directly rather than trying to price out 15 individual seats online, since group blocks are often discounted and can include perks like scoreboard shoutouts or a photo on the court.
Picking Seats: A Few Honest Notes
Courtside seats are the obvious splurge — you’re close enough to hear the squeak of sneakers and the bench chatter, and they carry a price tag to match. For most fans, the better value sits in the lower-level sideline sections, which give a full, unobstructed view of both baskets without the courtside markup. FedExForum was actually the first NBA arena to install see-through shot clocks specifically so that lower-bowl and upper-level seats wouldn’t have their sightlines blocked, which is a small design detail that matters more than people expect once you’re sitting behind one.
If budget is the priority, upper-level seats behind the baskets still deliver a good look at the game in a building this size, and the crowd noise up there tends to be some of the most enthusiastic in the arena. Whichever ticket platform you use, pull up the interactive seating chart before buying — a “great deal” in an obstructed corner is rarely a better experience than a mid-priced seat with a clean view.
Getting to FedExForum and Where to Park
FedExForum sits in the middle of downtown Memphis, easily reached from I-40, I-55, and Midtown I-240, as well as Poplar Avenue. Memphis also runs trolley lines and express shuttle service within a few blocks of the arena, which is worth considering on nights with heavy downtown traffic or overlapping events.
If you’re driving, here’s where to look for parking:
- FedExForum Gossett Motors Parking Garage — 195 Doctor M.L. King Jr. Avenue, Memphis, TN 38103. This is the attached five-level garage with about 1,500 spaces, with two entrances on Dr. M.L. King Jr. Avenue between B.B. King Boulevard and Fourth Street.
- 249 Peabody Place Parking Lot — 249 Peabody Place, Memphis, TN 38103
- Fourth at Beale Parking Lot — 150 S. Fourth Street, Memphis, TN 38103
- 278 S. 4th Street Parking Lot — 278 S. 4th Street, Memphis, TN 38103
- Gibson Lot — about one block southwest of the arena, entered from the south side of Dr. M.L. King Jr. Avenue west of B.B. King Boulevard
Parking rates shift depending on the event, and for Grizzlies games the Gossett Motors Garage largely runs on a season-parking basis, so single-game spaces there can be limited. Booking a spot in advance through the FedExForum parking page, Vivid Seats’ parking listings, or apps like SpotHero and ParkWhiz takes the guesswork out of it and usually beats paying a premium at the gate. If you’d rather skip parking altogether, the trolley and shuttle options drop you within a short walk of the Main Entry Plaza on Third Street.
Before and After the Game: Beale Street Is Part of the Experience
FedExForum’s location is not an accident — the arena was built to sit inside the Beale Street Entertainment District, and treating a Grizzlies game as a standalone event misses half the point of going downtown at all. The Memphis Rock ‘n’ Soul Museum sits right at 191 Beale Street, practically attached to the arena footprint, and the blocks around it are lined with live-music clubs, barbecue joints, and the kind of neon-lit energy Memphis built its reputation on. Grabbing dinner or a drink on Beale before tip-off, or sticking around after the final buzzer, turns a two-hour basketball game into a full night out — and it’s one of the reasons Grizzlies games consistently rank among the better in-arena atmospheres in the league.
Marquee Games Worth Building a Trip Around
Not every night on the schedule carries the same weight. If you’re being selective about which tickets to buy, a few dates stand out for the 2026-27 season:
- October 21 — vs. Utah Jazz (Home Opener): Jaren Jackson Jr.’s first game back in Memphis as an opponent, paired with a rookie showcase between Memphis’ Cameron Boozer and Utah’s Darryn Peterson.
- November 6 — vs. Oklahoma City Thunder: The start of Emirates NBA Cup group play at FedExForum, part of Memphis’ group alongside the Thunder, Pelicans, Clippers, and Timberwolves.
- January 18 — vs. Houston Rockets: The annual MLK Day game, with national broadcast coverage.
- February 3 — vs. Philadelphia 76ers: LeBron James’ first Memphis visit of the season, opening the franchise’s longest homestand.
- February 6 and February 8 — vs. Portland Trail Blazers: Ja Morant’s return to FedExForum, across two consecutive home dates.
- February 18 — vs. Boston Celtics: One of the league’s most recognizable franchises visiting during the second half of the season, with tickets released to the public on September 1.
- April 6 and April 7 — vs. Detroit and Washington: The Grizzlies’ final two home dates of the regular season before finishing the year on the road.
Games against former Grizzlies tend to sell differently than the rest of the schedule — expect resale prices to climb closer to those dates, particularly for the Morant and Jackson matchups, so if either is on your list, it’s worth locking in tickets well ahead of time rather than waiting for game week.
