MEMPHIS, Tenn., Tuesday, April 26, 2002 – Coming this fall, there will be more places to play at Peabody Place in downtown Memphis. San Antonio-based Kidder Entertainment is developing The Forum at Peabody Place, a multifaceted nightclub, to be located at the corner of Third Street and Peabody Place, directly across from the Peabody Place Entertainment and Retail Center.

The 19,000-sqaure-foot nightclub will feature four different venues under one roof, including a karaoke bar, retro dance club, Top 40 dancing, and a sports bar with a full-service restaurant and live entertainment.

"We are excited to be bringing more places to have fun in downtown Memphis," said Andrew J. Groveman, senior vice president, Belz Enterprises, developers of Peabody Place.
