The Vango Tacoma 400 Tent is designed for campers who want a little more separation and privacy while still enjoying shared living space. Its vis-a-vis layout places the bedrooms at opposite ends of the tent, creating a comfortable buffer of living space in the middle. This makes it especially appealing for couples holidaying together, families with older children, or anyone who enjoys their own quiet corner at night.
The central living area feels bright and welcoming, thanks to large Diamond Clear windows and excellent ventilation throughout. Whether you’re sitting down for breakfast, escaping a rain shower, or relaxing in the evening, the Tacoma 400 offers a balanced mix of openness and practicality that makes longer camping trips far more enjoyable.
Canvas & Weather Protection
Built with Vango’s proven Dynamic Weave 100™ fabric, the Vango Tacoma 400 Tent is designed to handle the realities of UK camping while remaining impressively manageable to transport. The cross-hatch construction delivers outstanding strength without unnecessary weight, making it a reliable choice for repeated use throughout the season.
A 4,000mm hydrostatic head rating provides excellent waterproof performance in sustained rain, while ColourLok Eco technology helps protect the fabric from UV damage and fading over time. Fully taped seams complete the weatherproofing, giving you confidence when the forecast is less than perfect.

Frame, Pitching & Stability
The Vango Tacoma 400 Tent uses a traditional poled structure, offering a reassuringly solid feel once pitched. PowerFlex® fibreglass poles provide the perfect balance between strength and flexibility, helping the tent cope with changeable conditions while maintaining its shape.
Pitching is straightforward, with oversized corner pegs and colour-coded webbing points guiding you through setup. Once up, the TBSII Tension Band System and high-visibility guylines help brace the structure in gusty weather, adding extra peace of mind on exposed pitches.

Living Area & Daytime Comfort
At the heart of the Vango Tacoma 400 Tent is a generous central living area designed for real campsite living. This space is ideal for shared meals, evening relaxation or simply storing kit out of the way of the bedrooms. The large Diamond Clear window allows natural light to flood in during the day, creating a bright and open feel.
When privacy is needed, toggled curtains can be rolled down easily, making the tent feel cosy and secure at night. Mesh doors and AirZone ventilation panels ensure fresh air flows through the tent, reducing condensation and keeping things comfortable even on warmer days.

Bedrooms & Sleeping Space
The Vango Tacoma 400 Tent truly stands out when it comes to sleeping comfort. Its vis-a-vis layout places two Midnight King Size bedrooms at opposite ends of the tent, offering excellent privacy for all occupants. Each bedroom provides a generous 70cm sleeping width per person, giving you plenty of space to stretch out.
The darkened Midnight fabric reduces early morning light, helping you sleep longer on bright summer mornings. Wide doorways, clear access and practical storage pockets make the bedrooms easy to use and comfortable for campers of all ages.

Practical touches like cable entry points, lantern hanging points and the SkyTrack II system allow you to tailor the space to your needs, while the drop-down door step improves accessibility for prams or wheelchairs.
