Pro Tips

  1. 1.Check the event schedule online before visiting, as box office hours (12-5 PM weekdays) are limited and the venue primarily operates during scheduled events
  2. 2.Arrive 30-45 minutes early for popular family shows and hockey games to find convenient parking and grab snacks before the action starts
  3. 3.For hockey games, bring a light jacket as arena temperatures can be chilly, and sit mid-level for the best view of the action without being too close to the glass
  4. 4.Look for family pack deals on tickets, which often include concession credits and can save significantly over individual ticket purchases
  5. 5.The venue is located just off I-55, making it an easy stop when traveling through the Memphis area

Best Time to Visit

Weekend afternoons are ideal for family-friendly events like matinee shows and early-evening hockey games. Winter months (October-April) offer the most consistent schedule with minor league hockey season in full swing, plus holiday shows and special events.

What to Know

Ticket prices vary widely by event type, from $10-15 for hockey games to $30+ for major concerts and shows. The venue offers ample free parking, standard arena concessions, and is fully accessible with elevator access to all seating levels.

Seasonal Notes

Peak season runs October through April during minor league hockey season. Holiday events (Nutcracker performances, Christmas shows) book up quickly in November-December. Summer offers fewer events but often features special touring shows. Always check the event calendar as the venue is event-driven rather than open for general admission.

Nearby Eats

Chick-fil-A and McAlister's Deli are within a mile of the venue, both offering quick, kid-friendly meals before events. For sit-down dining, head to nearby Southaven Towne Center (5 minutes away) which has Newk's Eatery and other family casual restaurants.
