Foster Pavilion is the basketball arena for the Baylor University Bears in Waco, Texas, located along the Brazos River near campus. It is the home of Baylor's Big 12 men's and women's basketball programs, seating around 7,500 fans in a sleek, modern building with riverside views. Premium seating, loge boxes, and a courtside club give it one of the more upscale atmospheres in college basketball. Game nights draw a energetic, sold-out crowd befitting a recent national title program.
The Paul and Alejandra Foster Pavilion replaced the on-campus Ferrell Center as Baylor basketball's home, opening on January 2, 2024, for the program that won the 2021 NCAA men's basketball national championship. Built at a cost of roughly $212 million, the riverside arena was designed to give Baylor basketball a facility matching its rise to national prominence under coach Scott Drew. Its debut season drew rave reviews for its sightlines, amenities, and modern design. Though still young, it has quickly become a marquee home-court venue in the Big 12.
