Key Features & FAQs – Vango Capri 400 Tent

Tent type

The Vango Capri 400 is a poled family tent, not an AirBeam (inflatable) model. It uses durable PowerFlex® fibreglass poles for a straightforward and reliable pitch.

Sleeping capacity

Designed to sleep up to four people, with queen-size Lights-Out bedrooms that help reduce early morning light for more comfortable sleeping.

Waterproof protection

The flysheet is made from Sentinel Essential fabric with a 3,000mm hydrostatic head. It offers dependable waterproof performance and is produced using recycled plastics.

Pitching method

Pitching is simple and efficient: roll out the tent, peg the corners, feed the poles through the sleeves, secure the main pegging points, and tension the guy lines.

Living area

The living space offers generous stand-up height, making it comfortable to move around. A built-in front canopy adds sheltered space for storage or sitting outside.

Ventilation

Large mesh panels on the doors and windows, along with mesh ventilation flaps, help maintain airflow and reduce condensation.

Stability in wind

The Capri 400 includes Vango’s TBSII Tension Band System, which supports the pole structure and improves stability in windy conditions.

Bedrooms

Darker Lights-Out bedrooms help limit light levels, while a toggle divider allows the sleeping area to be split into two separate sections if needed.

Packing away

To pack away, unpeg the tent, fold it down neatly, roll tightly to remove trapped air, and place it into the oversized carry bag for easier storage and transport.

Front canopy

The integrated front canopy provides additional sheltered space and includes a mesh door to allow airflow while offering protection.
