Space available in a family tent
Anyone planning a camping holiday with family and friends knows that everyone would prefer to have their own place to sleep. Whether you go straight for one of the large Outdoor Revolution tents or a smaller one is not the decisive factor at first. Outdoor Revolution offers practical extensions and add-ons to create additional sleeping space. The 2-person sleeping tents can be hooked in, while the 4-person sleeping tent can be converted into an 8-person tent in just a few simple steps. Outdoor Revolution also offers very large family tents, such as the Outdoor Revolution Kalahari 9.0! It offers space for up to 13 people, so your family and friends can join you on your camping trip or holiday. Most of Outdoor Revolution's air tents can also be extended with an extra extension or veranda extension. This gives family tent owners the opportunity to create even more space for friends and relatives.
How to choose the right family tent material
This depends on the intended use and the place of use. The decisive factor is not only the weight but also the material properties and, in some cases, the water column. If you are only travelling for a few days a year, it can also be a lightweight material with a weight of = 75 g/m2 and a water column of = 2500 mm. However, if you plan to go camping with the family several times a year, you should choose a material that is stable and has a water column of more than 6000 mm. The normal standard fabrics are suitable for a maximum of 2 - 3 weeks a year and are suitable for Northern Europe. It is perfect for short trips over the weekend and the family tent is easy to transport. However, if you want to use the tunnel tent for longer holidays and trips of more than 3 weeks a year and are also travelling in the south, you should opt for a higher quality material! You can choose between Sentinentel, cotton, PolyCotton from Outdoor Revolution, Vango and Zempire. The PolyCotton is a mixture of polyester and cotton fibres, it offers very good UV stability and is also breathable. The family tent should also have some ventilation options, otherwise you won't have a good indoor climate and the tent will sweat! In most cases, the windows are not only fitted with film, but also have a layer of gauze mesh. This ensures good ventilation and an optimum indoor climate. Depending on the material, these are suitable for different applications. Basically, the better and higher quality the material and unfortunately also the price, the more pleasant the indoor climate, sleeping and durability of the Zempire tent, Vango family tent. Vango, Zempire and Outdoor Revolution also offer a mix of different materials so that you can benefit from the best properties of these materials for your needs and budget.
This is what you should look for in a good family tent:
- Extra sleeping cabins that can be darkened
- Proper canopy, keeps rain out when the door is open
- Cable routing
- Sufficient ventilation
- Extra pockets as organisers
- Mosquito & gauze window
- Floor tarpaulin to protect against moisture
- UV resistance
- Breathability

How to find the right family tent for my next camping holiday
Various factors play a role here! How long will I use the family tent per year? Where will we spend our camping holiday with the family tent? (Here it is important to realise that the higher the UV exposure, the higher the quality of the material). The location, such as a campsite, festival or event, as well as the budget, family size and camping duration are also part of the decision-making process. Not every family needs space for 13-15 people, but usually four people plus 1 dog and 5 guinea pigs, so a smaller family tent such as the Outdoor Revolution Camp Star 500 is usually perfectly adequate. A small tent is also quicker to set up and lighter than the flagship tents from Outdoor Revolution Kalahari 9.0 PC, Vango Tacoma Air 800 XL or the Zempire Pro TXL TCV2, which can accommodate up to 15 people.
Are you camping for more than 4 weeks a year? Then take a look at the cotton and PolyCotton models from Zempire, Vango and Outdoor Revolution. With the cotton and PolyCotton fabrics you have a breathable and durable family tent that will provide you with shelter, living and sleeping space for many wonderful holidays. It is also important to mention what time of year you are going on holiday! If you only go camping in winter, you will have different requirements for the family tent than a family that only uses the tent from spring to autumn. Also, not every family tent offers the option of darkening and privacy. This means you have protection from the sun and light and not everyone can see into the tent immediately. And you won't be woken up immediately by the first rays of sunshine in your family tent.
What does a good family tent cost?
Here you have to differentiate between an air or frame family tent. It also depends on the material, quality and number of people. For couples and small families, you should expect to pay at least € 600, preferably more. With a larger number of people, this can easily add up to several thousand euros. But for this you get an absolute luxury family tent like the Zempire Delta Force V2 with space for 14 people in high-quality PolyCotton and a full 5-year guarantee!
