As the first completed facility in a larger mixed-use development, this 227,000-square-foot venue offers unmatched versatility. It includes 16 basketball courts that convert into 32 volleyball courts, a banked indoor track and 75,000 square feet of column-free space for tournaments, expos and events. The Center is also equipped with two courtside cafes, a Ninja 901 Adventure Course and a gaming lounge, offering additional recreation for visitors.

Located adjacent to the Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium, the venue is ideally situated near retail, dining, and hospitality options, making it a perfect hub for traveling teams and events. The Memphis Sports and Events Center has already made a significant impact on the community, drawing over two million annual visitors and earning recognition, including the Best New Construction: Large Projects award at the 2023 Memphis Business Journal’s Building Memphis Awards.

By revitalizing Liberty Park, the Center honors Memphis’ rich history while delivering a community asset for sports, recreation and gatherings.
