Pyramid Arena - Overview

The Pyramid Arena in Memphis Tennessee is one of the most uniquely designed structures on earth. The 32 story Pyramid is the third largest pyramid in the world and soars even taller than the Statue of Liberty or the Taj Mahal. Managed and operated by SMG, this 21,000 seat sports and entertainment facility is home to the NBA Memphis Grizzlies and the University of Memphis Men's Basketball Program and is well known for hosting national basketball tournaments, concerts and family shows.

Here are a few quick facts about The Pyramid Arena:

On the bank of the Mighty Mississippi River, the arena is housed inside a 32 story stainless steel pyramid, paying homage to the Memphis' namesake - Memphis on the Nile River.
This giant pyramid has more than a half million square feet of usable space inside.
With a footprint larger than six football fields, The Pyramid's base covers 360,000 square feet.
Seating capacity is approximately 21,000 for concerts and just over 20,000 for basketball.
Twenty-six lower level luxury suites are located on the plaza concourse.
Two additional suites are designed for disabled patron. Disabled seating is also available on all three levels of The Pyramid.
The Pyramid Gallery of Stars is an informal gathering area on the East Mezzanine, featuring super-size photos of the biggest stars in sports and entertainment. All of the photos were taken from past Pyramid events. The Gallery area also features additional restrooms and concessions.
The backstage areas include 10 dressing rooms, four locker rooms, a media work room, interview room, show production office and green room.
The giant center hung scoreboard has the latest state-of-the-art LED video display board technology. The entire system features full video production capabilities; four center-hung 12-foot by 10-foot replay boards and 24 concession stand monitors.
