Vango Tahoe 400 Tent

The Vango Tahoe 400 is a four-person, three-pole dome tent with a large porch and Midnight Bedroom. Designed for weekend camping and festivals, it offers a separate porch for storing kit and a linked-in groundsheet that can be attached or detached. It is a practical option for couples, friends and small families planning UK campsite stays.

Why choose the Vango Tahoe 400?

Keep your weekend camping setup straightforward: pitch the colour-coded poles, organise your kit in the porch and settle into a bedroom designed to reduce early morning light. The Tahoe 400 combines a four-person sleeping capacity with useful storage and ventilation features for short breaks outdoors.

• Four-person capacity: accommodates up to four campers; couples and smaller groups can use the spare space for extra comfort. Check your bedding sizes and luggage requirements before choosing capacity.
• Large porch: keeps stored kit separate from the sleeping area.
• Midnight Bedroom: reduces early morning light; it should not be treated as a guarantee of complete blackout.
• Linked-in porch groundsheet: attaches or detaches to suit your setup, rather than being permanently sewn in.
• PowerFlex fibreglass poles: colour-coded poles help simplify pitching.
• Dynamic Weave 100 fabric: cross-hatch construction designed for strength and durability.
• Airflow and storage: inner mesh vents, a mesh-panel living-area door, bedroom pockets and lantern hanging points.
• Handled carry bag: keeps the tent packed for transport and storage.
