We couldn't resist the pun, but trust us, the Maximus Arena Wood Oven really does take tailgating to a whole new level! Imagine rolling up on game day and serving wood-fired pizza, sizzling apps, and fresh-baked goodies right from your own oven. It's the upgrade your tailgate has been waiting for, and your friends will definitely believe the hype once they taste it.
And the best part? This Patio Bundle has everything you need to get started. No need to hunt down extra parts or pay for multiple shipments. You'll save on shipping and be ready to fire things up right out of the box.
WHAT'S IN THE BUNDLE
The Maximus Arena offers a modern upgrade with its sleek slate-front design, setting it apart from the traditional brick look.
You might notice the chimney in the back of the oven, but don’t let that fool you. Inside, the Maximus Arena Stainless Steel Wood-Fired Oven has an aluminum dome with a clever stainless steel dropped ceiling. This setup moves the heat and fire from the back of the oven, across the top of your food, and then out through the chimney.
That means your dishes cook with a wonderful convection effect, holding heat beautifully and giving you delicious results every time.

✓ DOUBLE LAYERS TO LOCK IN THE HEAT
Built to last you for years, the Maximus Arena features a 1.4mm aluminum outer wall that resists wet, salty climates and a 304-2B stainless steel double wall for unmatched strength. With ceramic insulation, a refractory floor tile, and a decorative brick façade, it stays hot for hours inside while remaining cool to the touch outside.
✓ COOKING PRODUCTIVITY
Crank out up to 80 of your favorite 10" pies or 40 full-sized 12" pizzas every hour. That's the kind of volume that keeps hungry crowds happy and big events running smoothly. At just 200 pounds, this oven is light enough to move yet powerful enough to keep the orders coming.
At this size, this oven is perfect for food trucks, catering, fairs, corporate events, small restaurants, and even backyard parties. It's a fraction of the cost of a pizza trailer, easy to transport, and compact enough to fit in the back of most cars.
This oven packs a roomy 27.5" x 27.5" cooking space, giving you plenty of room to feed a crowd. We’ve scaled the interior in the illustration below so you can see just how much pizza power you’re working with.
The ARENA is the little brother to the PRIME. If the Arena model is too small, take a look at the bigger wood fired oven from Portugal, the Maximus Prime Large pizza oven. Either way, you'll find a pizza oven that's just right!

More Cool Things About This Oven

For Food Truck or Trailer Use, Read HereIf you are planning to use this oven for a food truck or trailer, it MUST BE MODIFIED in order to handle the constant movement and vibrations. Your vehicle must have satisfactory suspension and the face of the oven must be secured with added bolts from the dome into the face. We have an instructional video which we can provide. This is an after purchase modification. We are not responsible for any damages if not properly modified. For a hassle-free professional option, consider our Maximus Prime PRO Large Pizza Oven. This is our new professional-grade oven and it now comes pre-secured for use in food trucks and trailers, so you don't need to make these modifications yourself. |

We don't like wasting good heat in our wood-burning ovens so after the pizzas are cooked, we often throw in a good breakfast casserole in preparation for the following morning! Here's a video of a scrumptious southwestern breakfast casserole complete with eggs, cheese, and salsa! Check out the large cooking space! ![]() |
