FedEx St. Jude Championship Introduces “Grounds+” Ticket with Included Food and Beverage for 2026
New ticket model enhances fan experience with complimentary food and non-alcoholic beverages for all attendees
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The FedEx St. Jude Championship will roll out a new ticket model for 2026, the “Grounds+” program, offering all ticket holders complimentary food and non-alcoholic beverages at designated on-course concession locations.
The Grounds+ program is designed to provide a more seamless and affordable fan experience with market-style concession stations that offer unlimited access to classic favorites, while specialty items and alcoholic beverages remain available for purchase.
The new offering was developed in direct response to fan feedback following the 2025 tournament. While the FedEx St. Jude Championship earned one of the highest fan satisfaction ratings across the PGA TOUR, surveys identified an opportunity to improve overall value by addressing concession pricing and accessibility.
“Fans told us they wanted a more convenient and affordable experience, and Grounds+ delivers on that,” said Robert Miller, Sales Director for the FedEx St. Jude Championship. “By including food and non-alcoholic beverages with every ticket, we’re making it easier for fans to enjoy the full fan experience and stay focused on the action.”
Through the tournament’s youth ticket policy, each ticketed adult may bring up to two kids 15 and under for free, with full access to the Grounds+ program, including complimentary food and non-alcoholic beverages. Military tickets, in partnership with Big River Steel, will be available at a later date and will also include full access to the Grounds+ program.
Additionally, the tournament will bring back the popular Michelob ULTRA Club, which will offer complimentary beer and seltzers inside the venue along with full access to the Grounds+ food and non-alcoholic beverage selections. The club will be located directly behind the 11th hole and provide an upgraded experience with views of the par-3 island green.
Presale is now open for 2026 FedEx St. Jude Championship tickets, including the new Grounds+ program and Michelob ULTRA Club. To learn more please visit, https://www.fedexchampionship.com/tickets
