Rain or Shine Use
Set up seating underneath the pavilion and watch as the raindrops fall and listen to the calming water sounds. By providing full coverage overhead, unlike a traditional pergola, a pavilion will let you stay dry but lets in a relaxing breeze with its open sides. Then, when the rain lets up, you have a wide open view of warming skies, and perhaps a potential sighting of a rainbow.
Outdoor Dining Option
If you like dining alfresco whenever possible, the addition of a useful pavilion can help make your outdoor dining dreams come true. A table and chairs under the pavilion would give you an inviting place to enjoy dinner outside in the warmer weather. If you want to take your dining adventures up another notch, consider adding an outdoor kitchen nearby. An outdoor cooking area will bring the entire dining concept together, and you can have hot, fresh meals brought to your pavilion table as soon as they’re ready. Plus, the coverage provided by the pavilion potentially makes cooking outdoors in any type of weather possible, particularly if you have a nearby fire pit to keep you warm.
Outdoor Entertainment Area
A pavilion creates an eye-catching entertaining area. If you want to create an outdoor space where people will love to gather and spend time with one another, a pavilion serves these needs and so much more. You can host parties at your pavilion, and with the roof in place, you don’t have to worry about canceling your outdoor party in the event of rain. You can host your event rain or shine when you have a pavilion to do so. This outdoor gathering spot is also an excellent place to enjoy family time, whether you’re playing board games with the kids or watching a movie on an outdoor movie screen with your significant other.
Add Outdoor Lights for Nighttime
With a pavilion, you can gather with friends and family during the daytime, rain or shine. However, if you add outdoor lights, you can also use this area at nighttime, too. Think of how nice it will be sitting under the stars with twinkle lights woven around the pavilion beams and overhead. In addition, you can add more lighting with vertical outdoor light fixtures on the ground or on top of a retaining wall if you have one built alongside the pavilion. You can also add walkway lighting leading out to the pavilion from your house for extra ambience and ease of access to the pavilion. Include LED lights of varying brightness levels to achieve your outdoor lighting goals.
