MEMPHIS, May 16, 2013–
Like with the first two rounds of the 2013 NBA Playoffs, Western Conference Finals Home Games 1 and 2 will feature a FedExForum Plaza Party, presented by associate sponsor Southland Park Gaming and Racing beginning two hours prior to tip-off. The party will feature live music performances from the C Spire Wireless Stage. Other highlights include a kid’s play area sponsored by Chick-fil-A which will include inflatables, face painters and balloon artists. Sonic Drive-Ins will also sponsor sign-making stations.
Following each game will be the official after-party at Bleu Restaurant and Lounge, located across the street from FedExForum at the Westin, where the Grizz Girls will be on-hand to help giveaway a Westin Escape Package.
Fans are encouraged to arrive to FedExForum earlier than normal for all playoff games. Due to the enhanced security measures and hand-wanding procedures that have been put in place, doors will open 90 minutes prior to tip-off for all Memphis Grizzlies home postseason contests and two hours early for MVP Season Ticket Holders. Fans are encouraged to arrive early to enjoy the festivities and allow them to get to their seats and enjoy the most positive game-watching experience possible.
Coming off 15-straight home playoff game sellouts, Grizzlies’ fans are encouraged to guarantee their playoff tickets by purchasing 2013-14 Season Tickets. Season Tickets start at just $5 per game. Grizzlies’ fans can purchase single game tickets for the Western Conference Finals (Round 3 Home Games 1 and 2) beginning Saturday, May 18 at noon while supplies last at all Ticketmaster outlets, by calling 1-800-4-NBA-TIX, by visiting the FedExForum Box Office or online at grizzlies.com or ticketmaster.com.
