Nate Bargatze at FedExForum
Comedian Nate Bargatze is known for clean, deadpan stand-up built around family life, Southern upbringing, and everyday mishaps. Born in Nashville in 1979, he began performing in 2002 and reached a wider audience through Netflix's The Standups in 2017. His relatable storytelling has earned strong audience praise, while his 2023 and 2024 appearances as host of Saturday Night Live brought his understated style to an even broader audience.
Bargatze's specials include The Tennessee Kid, released on Netflix in 2019, and Hello World, released on Amazon Prime Video in January 2023. His touring work includes The Be Somebody Tour and Nate Bargatze Live 2024–2025. The supplied event listing places his Memphis appearance at FedExForum on May 31, 2024.

For Memphis audiences, the downtown arena offers a large-scale setting for Bargatze's conversational comedy. The listing identifies this event under Concerts and Comedy on southaventickets.com. Event details can change, so check the current listing and ticket information before making plans.
FedExForum Venue and Seating Information
FedExForum is a downtown Memphis arena with an approximate capacity of 18,400. Its seating levels include floor, plaza, terrace, and pinnacle sections, along with suites and club-level options. Configurations vary by event; the supplied venue information notes that concerts may use 360-degree seating.
For a comedy show, floor or plaza seats may provide a closer view of the performer, while upper levels offer a broader arena perspective. These are general considerations rather than event-specific seating reviews; consult the event seating chart to confirm the layout and available sections.
