Tour De Grizz



Tour de Grizz 2017


The Memphis Grizzlies and BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee continue the annual tradition of encouraging Grizzlies fans to consider alternative and healthy choices by taking part in the Eighth Annual Tour de Grizz on Sunday, April 9th before the Grizzlies tip-off against the Detroit Pistons at 5 p.m.


Ticket Package Includes:

  • Ticket to the game
  • Tour de Grizz T-Shirt
  • Ability to participate in the bike ride


Participants in the Eighth Annual Tour de Grizz are encouraged to enjoy the new Big River Crossing, as well as music and entertainment from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. at Martyrs Park before hopping on their bikes for a two-mile ride to FedExForum to see the Grizzlies take the court. Riders in the Tour de Grizz will depart from Martyrs Park at 3:30 p.m. and will be accompanied by Memphis Police escorts to ensure the safety of all participants as they make the trip to and from FedExForum. Once the riders have reached their basketball destination, they will have complimentary “Bike Valet Parking”. Following the game, fans will be invited to participate in a group ride back to the park.


All participants must be at least 10 years of age to ride their own bike and are required to provide their own bike and safety equipment, including a helmet and lights. The Eighth Annual Tour de Grizz will take place rain or shine.
