Professional Tailgate Tents

There’s nothing like a good ol’ fashioned tailgate on football Saturdays. We’ve helped a handful of die-hard fans fully enjoy their tailgating experience with custom, heavy-duty tailgating tents that are built to last season after season.

It’s important to note that you do need your university’s permission to use their logos on any custom tent design. TentCraft doesn’t hold the rights to any NCAA college logos, so make sure you have the proper approvals before adding those details to your tent.

These aren’t your typical tailgate tents that you’d find at Home Depot or on Amazon. Our tents are professional-grade, and designed to handle the wear and tear of a full season of tailgating. With all-aluminum frames, durable fabrics, and custom features, these tents are in a league of their own.

Because of their American-made quality and durability, they do come at a higher price point. We've had die-hard football fans who tailgate together and split the cost to invest in a heavy-duty MONARCHTENT.

Customization is where these tents truly shine. Beyond just colors and logos, you can tailor your tent to be as functional and eye-catching as you like. Counters for drinks and snacks? No problem. Giant flags to celebrate your team's national championship? We’ve got you covered.

With our professional tailgate tents, you’ll be the envy of the parking lot, and more importantly, you’ll have a setup that keeps the good times rolling all season long.

Shoebox Tent for VIPs at Games

Make your VIPs stand out in style with a shoebox tent made using our truss structure and custom Powerstretch material. A handful of colleges, including Florida A&M University, have ditched their tent rentals for a structure they can set up semi-permanently throughout a football season that VIP attendees can use during a game.

A shoebox tent is large — typically 20'x40' — giving you plenty of real estate for branding and sponsorships, and, of course, plenty of space for people to gather underneath.

If you're looking for that type of experience, reach out to the TentCraft team and let's unbox your project today!

Custom Tents for Colleges FAQs

  • What is the best solution for a semi-permanent tent?

  • The best semi-permanent tent checks three boxes: It’s heavy-duty and durable enough to handle harsh weather; it’s easy to install; and it can accommodate a number of accessories, like side walls and window walls to ensure nothing blows in during instruction time. E-Series and X-Series frame tents from TentCraft are excellent choices that meet these criteria.

  • What are TentCraft custom pop-ups tents made of?

  • TentCraft custom pop-up tents are made with a strong, lightweight aluminum frame. We use 600 denier polyester for our canopies that can be completely customized.

  • Are your tents wind rated?

  • All TentCraft tents come with a certified wind rating from an actual engineering firm. Don’t believe us? Here’s the wind rating document for our 20’x20’ E-Series Event Tent.
