Apparatuses (e.g., inkjet printheads) having a dryfilm tenting structure and methods for fabricating the same are disclosed. In some embodiments, an inkjet printhead comprises a first actuator substrate having one or more cavities for fluid routing and include an actuator cavity; an actuator stack coupled to the first structure and positioned at least partially over the actuator cavity, the actuator stack comprising a membrane, an actuator coupled to a first side of the membrane, and a tented structure coupled to the actuator substrate to create an enclosed cavity large enough to enable the membrane in the cavity to bow without contacting the tented structure.
