Tinsley Pavilion

 

The Tinsley Pavilion is a unique space located on the grounds of the Lee Civic Center. The pavilion was first built in 1998, and has played host to many outdoor events, concerts, cookout, private parties, corporate parties, cook-off's and is the main 4H facility during the Southwest Florida and Lee County Fair every year. 
 
The Tinsley Pavilion was named after Fair Board Member William Tinsley. The pavilion stretches 190 ft. in length, 90 ft. wide and the ceiling ranges from 20 to 25 ft. The floor is all concrete and has its own power and lighting. The Tinsley Pavilion always has a great breeze flowing through it, even on the hottest of days!
