Most 8-person tents are designed for 3-season use, and some are even large enough to feature multiple separate rooms, such as our Outbound 8-Person 3-Season 2-Room Lightweight Dome Tent. 

What are 8 person instant tents?

8-person instant tents are large tents (designed for eight occupants) that can be set up “instantly”, usually via a pop-up system. The Outbound 8-Person 3-Season Instant Pop-Up Cabin Tent is one of our personal favorites, with our fiberglass "Easy-Up" frame technology system that allows you to set up camp faster than ever before. Built-in zipper windows and a mesh roof provide unprecedented ventilation and airflow, while the heavy-duty 600 mm coated rainfly and front canopy, coupled with welded leakproof seams and a polyester bathtub floor, offer superior weather protection.

What size tent should I get for 8 people?

For eight campers, you’ll definitely want an 8-person tent, at minimum. If you’ll also be camping with pets, need extra space for rambunctious small children, or traveling with extra gear (like snowshoes, climbing gear, inflatable kayaks, hunting equipment, or other camping accessories), then you’ll likely need a tent larger than an 8-person, such as a 10-person cabin tent. If a larger option is better suited for your adventure, then we would recommend the ​​Outbound 10-Person 3-Season Instant Pop-Up Cabin Tent to meet your needs.

What is the best 8 person tent?

The Outbound 8-Person 3-Season Lightweight Dome Tent is our personal favorite. As far as 8-person tents for camping go, this tent is the cream of the crop. Its lightweight build incorporates fiberglass "Easy-Up" frame technology, built-in zipper windows, and a mesh roof to provide excellent ventilation and airflow. A heavy-duty 600 mm coated rainfly and front canopy offer weather protection, and welded leakproof seams and a polyester bathtub floor keep groundwater out.
