Amid the growing trend of large-scale sporting events, campus athletic meets, and city-wide fitness activities, demand for temporary sports facilities is rapidly increasing. Among these, basketball tents—structures that can be quickly erected, are mobile, and provide a professional athletic environment—have become the preferred choice for many event organizers.
We provide a comprehensive overview of basketball pavilions—covering structural features, advantages, application scenarios, and KENTEN success stories—to help you quickly understand why more events are adopting this professional temporary architecture.

What is a Basketball Pavilion?
A basketball pavilion is a professional temporary sports venue constructed using an all-aluminum alloy frame + PVC canopy. It can be installed in a short timeframe, providing an indoor environment that meets competition requirements.
Compared to traditional steel-framed arenas, basketball tent structures offer greater flexibility and cost-effectiveness, with customizable dimensions and configurations to suit specific needs.
