Fan Cave Essentials

For those of you who have never heard the term, “fan cave” is a room, dwelling, or space where sports fans of all kinds gather to enjoy their sports in the way that is most comfortable for them. 

Sofas/ Sectionals/ Recliners

You’re rarely going to be chilling in your fan cave alone meaning you’re going to need to have enough seating for your whole crew. Sectionals are a sure fire way to seat groups of people all at once. Sectionals fill the space and add that inviting look that says “welcome to my fan cave”.

Upholstered sectionals make for a cozy home look, while leather sectionals help to elevate the space and make for a more sophisticated vibe. 

If you have a smaller crew, you can always opt for a sofa/ (upholstered or leather) love-seat combo. Sofas like the one below have fun features like a drop down table for snacks, cup holders for drinks, and zero gravity reclining capabilities for your most comfy viewing position making this sofa the ideal sofa for game day!

Just you on game day? A recliner brings seating for one to a whole new level. Upholstered, leather, zero gravity, or with cup holders, AFW has a sea of recliner options calling your name. 

Bars & Sofa Tables:

Who needs to watch the game at the bar when you can bring the bar to your fan cave? Bar tops with stools not only look amazing, but they provide additional seating and spots for snacks! It’s safe to say it isn’t really a fan cave without a bar. 

Entertainment Centers:

You likely already have the essential flat screen, but if you’re starting from scratch, AFW has a solid selection of TV’s perfect for your fan cave! Hanging your flat screen on the wall is always an option, but the obvious better option is to use a TV console like the one below. It provides a space for your TV, storage, AND a fireplace! No wall damage necessary! 

Decor & Lighting:

A great way to add to your fan cave without spending a ton of money is to use home decor. A wine rack like the one below is a functional statement piece that is incredibly affordable. Adding some LED lighting will help to set the mood. 

With these fan cave essentials, you’re sure to have the best football season yet! Go sports!
