Have you ever wanted to see a live polo match but didn’t know where to go? Look no further!

The Memphis Polo Club hosts a benefit tailgating picnic for St. Jude on Saturday, September 12th. Come enjoy the exciting sport of polo while enjoying the picturesque 200-acre Memphis Polo Club farm, and supporting one of Memphis’ greatest organizations  St. Jude—all in one fun-filled afternoon.

The match starts at 2 p.m. and will last two hours, but feel free to come early, stay late, socialize, and enjoy yourself. A concessions stand will be available, but bring food, drinks, umbrellas, or whatever you like to tailgate with. Free pony rides will be provided for children at half-time, so bring the whole family! Also, get ready to continue a longstanding halftime tradition- the stomping of the divots.

The Memphis Polo Club, in scenic Rossville, Tenn., is just 45 minutes from downtown but feels worlds away from the city. Tickets are $20 per person, and kids under 10 get in free.  Tickets will be sold at the gate or online at www.memphispoloclub.com.

Can’t make it? We have a full fall season with other great events.

Come experience the fast-paced game of polo!
