20. Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium: Southern Charm Meets Skyline Views

Located in the heart of Memphis, Tennessee, the Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium combines historic Southern football tradition with an urban vibrancy that few venues can match. Opened in 1965, the stadium has hosted decades of legendary moments—from classic bowl games to hometown heroes rising under Friday night lights. But beyond the gridiron action, it’s the setting that surprises and delights. To the west lies the mighty Mississippi River, winding its way past blues clubs and barbecue joints. To the east, the Memphis skyline rises in the distance, its lights shimmering like a postcard when night games are underway. The stadium’s horseshoe design allows fans on the upper levels to take in sweeping views of the city and beyond—especially stunning as the sun sets behind the river and bathes the stadium in warm hues. With its blend of music, culture, and football, the Liberty Bowl isn’t just a venue—it’s a reflection of Memphis itself: soulful, dynamic, and full of stories.
