MEMPHIS, Tenn. — New security measures are being implemented at the FedExForum for all Memphis Grizzlies games.
Starting with the first game on October 6, guests will have to walk through metal detectors as they come into the Arena.
“This new NBA policy is in line with what has become an industry standard across MLB, NHL and NFL venues, and we’re happy to comply with any enhancement aimed at improving convenience and safety,” said FedExForum Vice President of Arena Operations Eric Granger. “We thank our guests in advance for their patience and strongly encourage planning ahead to allow adequate time for entry.”
Guests will have to place their cell phones, cameras and keys on a security table before walking through, but will be allowed to keep shoes, hats, belts and jewelry on.
Expectant mothers and ADA guests can be screened by handheld devices if desired.
All guests are encouraged to arrive early in order to prevent delays entering.
