VW camper awnings are designed to fit Transporter models, including the T4, T5, T6, and T6.1, as well as other vans with a similar height and body shape. Typically made for attachment heights of 180–210cm, they provide a close connection to the van.
At WM Camping, we stock a huge range of inflatable and poled VW camper awnings from leading brands such as Vango, Outwell, and Outdoor Revolution. Whether you want a compact porch, a large family-size drive-away awning, or a lightweight sun canopy, you’ll find awnings here tailored to fit your VW Camper.

VW Camper Awnings at WM Camping
A VW camper awning is a great way to expand the space around your van, giving you more room for cooking, relaxing, or storing kit. Because they’re designed for VW Transporter models, the fit is more precise, ensuring a secure connection and a neater finish. Many VW awnings are also drive away, which means you can detach the van and leave the awning pitched when heading out for the day.
Vehicle Compatibility
These awnings are designed for the popular VW Transporter range, including the VW T4, VW T5, VW T6 and T6.1. With an attachment height of 180–210cm, they also fit similar-sized vans such as the Ford Transit Custom, Renault Trafic, and Mercedes Vito. If you own a taller vehicle, see our Motorhome Awnings instead.

Inflatable vs Poled
Both inflatable and poled VW camper awnings are available. Inflatable camper awnings use air beams and pitch in minutes, making them popular with VW owners who are always on the move. Poled models remain a cost-effective and reliable choice, though they take a little longer to set up.
Leading Brands
At WM Camping we stock leading brands including Vango, Outwell and Outdoor Revolution, both of which have dedicated designs for VW campervans. For brand-led browsing, see our Vango Awnings, Outwell Awnings and Outdoor Revolution Awnings.
