Located along the banks of the Brazos River on the west side of Interstate 35, the Paul & Alejandra Foster Pavilion is designed to elevate our home court advantage. The new facility is home to Baylor’s championship men's and women's basketball teams. By creating a more engaged and energized atmosphere, the Foster Pavilion has modernized and enhanced the fan experience.
This innovative project has sparked a transformation of Baylor's presence on the riverfront of University Parks Drive. Just across the interstate from the new Mark & Paula Hurd Family Welcome Center, this transformative building has bolstered the campus landscape.
