The Vango Tacoma Air 800XL Tent is a large, family-focused 8 man inflatable tent designed for campers who want space, privacy and fast pitching without compromise. With its vis-a-vis bedroom layout, double living area and reliable AirBeam® structure, it’s built for longer stays, bigger families and shared holidays where everyone wants room to breathe.
  • Spacious 8 man tent with vis-a-vis bedroom layout
  • Inflatable AirBeam structure for quick, stress-free pitching
  • Double living area with large Diamond Clear windows
  • Midnight Queen Size bedrooms for improved sleep
  • Durable Dynamic Weave 100™ fabric with 4,000mm HH waterproofing

The Vango Tacoma Air 800XL Tent is a large 8 berth inflatble designed for families who don’t want to feel on top of each other. Its clever layout places sleeping areas at opposite ends of the tent, with a large living space in between. This makes it ideal for large families, multi-generation camping, or groups who want shared social space without sacrificing personal privacy.

The “XL” difference is immediately noticeable. The double living area gives you genuine flexibility, space for dining, relaxing, storing kit or giving kids their own zone on rainy days. Combined with excellent ventilation, tall headroom and bright windows, the Tacoma Air 800XL feels open, calm and comfortable, even when fully occupied.


AirBeam® Technology & Pitching Ease

Despite its impressive size, the Vango Tacoma Air 800XL Tent is really easy to pitch. Vango’s industry-leading AirBeam technology replaces traditional poles with inflatable beams, allowing the tent to be erected in around 14 minutes, with inflation taking as little as 6 minutes using the supplied pump.

Once inflated, the structure is rigid, stable and reassuring. Pre-angled beams increase internal headroom and help the tent perform confidently in windy conditions, while the TBSII Tension Band System adds extra stability when the weather becomes changeable.

  • Inflatable AirBeam® Structure – Fast, pole-free pitching

  • AirSpeed Valve – Quick and controlled inflation and deflation

  • Supplied AirBeam Pump – Built-in pressure dial for accuracy

  • Pre-Angled Beams – Increased space and wind resistance

  • TBSII Tension Band System – Added stability in adverse weather


Canvas & Weather Protection

The Vango Tacoma Air 800XL Tent is built with robust Dynamic Weave 100 fabric, offering an excellent balance of strength, durability and packability. The cross-hatch construction increases tear resistance without adding unnecessary weight, making it suitable for regular family use.

With a 4,000mm hydrostatic head rating, the flysheet provides reliable protection against prolonged rain. ColourLok Eco technology helps prevent UV fading and maintains fabric performance over time, while also reducing water usage during the dyeing process. Fully taped seams complete the weatherproof package for confidence in unpredictable conditions.

  • Dynamic Weave 100™ Fabric – Exceptional strength-to-weight ratio

  • 4,000mm HH Waterproof Rating – Dependable wet-weather performance

  • ColourLok Eco Technology – Improved UV resistance and colour retention

  • Fully Taped Seams – Watertight protection throughout


Double Living Area & Daytime Comfort

The living space is where the Vango Tacoma Air 800XL Tent really sets itself apart. The double living area offers a huge amount of usable space, making it easy to divide the tent into zones for dining, relaxing and storage. This is especially valuable on longer trips or when the weather keeps you indoors.

Large Diamond Clear windows allow daylight to pour in, creating a bright and airy atmosphere, while toggled curtains provide privacy in the evening. Mesh doors and Vango AirZone ventilation panels encourage constant airflow, helping to regulate temperature and reduce condensation even when the tent is full.

  • Double Living Area – Extra space to relax, dine or store kit

  • Diamond Clear Windows – Light-filled interior

  • Toggled Privacy Curtains – Privacy when you need it

  • Mesh Living Room Doors – Improved airflow with insect protection

  • Vango AirZone Ventilation – High and low-level airflow control


Bedrooms & Sleeping Comfort

Sleep is a priority in the Vango Tacoma Air 800XL Tent, especially when camping with a full group. The vis-a-vis and mirrored bedroom layout places sleeping areas at opposite ends of the tent, offering excellent privacy for families, older children or friends sharing.

Midnight Queen Size bedrooms use darkened, breathable fabric to reduce early morning light and improve airflow overnight. Each camper benefits from a generous 60cm sleeping width, while toggled inner dividers allow you to adapt the layout to suit your group, whether that’s separate rooms or a larger master bedroom.

  • Vis-a-Vis & Mirrored Bedroom Layout – Maximum privacy

  • Midnight Queen Size Bedrooms – Darkened fabric for better sleep

  • 60cm Sleeping Area Per Person – Comfortable and spacious

  • Toggled Inner Dividers – Flexible sleeping arrangements

  • Bedroom Storage Pockets – Practical bedside organisation

  • Clear Access Bedrooms – Easy entry with no step-over


Groundsheet, Storage & Practical Touches

Comfort and usability are enhanced by the fully sewn-in waterproof PE groundsheet, creating a sealed, draught-free interior that keeps insects and moisture out. An additional groundsheet protector is included to help extend the life of the tent when pitching on tougher ground.

Everyday camping details are well covered, from SkyTrack II hanging points for lights and storage to cable entry points for powered pitches. The drop-down door step improves accessibility, making the tent easier to use for families with prams or anyone needing step-free access.

  • Fully Sewn-in Groundsheet – Warmer, cleaner interior

  • Additional Groundsheet Protector – Protects and extends tent life
