The Vango Tacoma 800XL Poled Tent is a spacious 8 berth family tent designed for campers who want separate sleeping areas, a generous central living space and a layout that works well for families, groups, scouts and guides. Based on the popular vis-à-vis tent style, the Vango Tacoma 800xl places bedrooms at either end of the tent, giving everyone more privacy and helping to create a clear divide between sleeping and living areas.
With its mirrored bedroom layout, the Vango Tacoma 800XL Poled Tent is a strong choice for families with older children, groups of friends, or anyone who prefers not to have all bedrooms grouped together. The central living area gives you plenty of room for furniture, bags, dining space or relaxing when the weather turns.
Strong Sentinel DynamicWeave™ Fabric
Vango has built the Tacoma 800XL using Sentinel DynamicWeave fabric, which combines interwoven 70D and 100D polyester threads for improved strength and durability. This fabric is designed to handle regular family camping use while keeping the tent pack size manageable.
The flysheet has a 4,000mm HH waterproof rating, with fully taped seams to help keep rain out during typical UK camping weather. The fabric also uses ColourLok Eco, a solution-dyeing process that uses up to 80% less water while improving UV resistance and helping the tent retain its colour for longer.
Spacious Vis-à-Vis Layout
The Vango Tacoma 800xl Tent layout is one of its biggest advantages. The two inner tents are positioned at opposite ends, giving separate bedroom areas for extra privacy. This makes the Tacoma 800XL especially suitable for larger families, mixed groups, or parents who want a bit more distance from the children’s sleeping area.
The bedrooms include toggled dividers, so you can split the sleeping spaces or remove the divider to create a larger master bedroom. Each person gets a queen-sized sleeping area, giving more room than many standard family tents.
Large Central Living Area
The Tacoma 800XL has a double living area, giving you a bright central section between the bedrooms. This area is ideal for tables, chairs, storage, wet-weather shelter and spending time together in the evenings.
Doors on both sides of the tent allow you to choose the best entrance depending on the wind direction, pitch position or weather. Integrated mesh doors help improve airflow while keeping insects out, and the Diamond Clear Windows bring in plenty of natural light. Toggled privacy curtains can be rolled away during the day and closed when you want more seclusion.
For extra outdoor shelter, the side doors are king pole compatible, allowing you to create a canopy with optional king poles. The Tacoma 800xl can also be used with an additional side awning for more covered space.
Darker Bedrooms for Better Sleep
The Midnight Bedrooms use Vango’s darkest bedroom fabric to reduce early morning light, helping you get a more restful night’s sleep. This is especially useful during summer camping trips when sunrise can be early.
Clear Access Bedrooms make it easier to get in and out, with a wider opening and no step into the bedroom. Bedroom pockets give you space for smaller items such as phones, torches, glasses and other essentials.
Built for Family Camping Comfort
The Vango Tacoma 800XLL Poled Tent includes a fully sewn-in groundsheet, helping to keep draughts, insects and damp ground at bay. High and low-level ventilation panels, including the Vango AirZone system and adjustable rear ventilation, help manage airflow and reduce condensation inside the tent.
Cable entry points with tidies allow you to bring power into the tent neatly, while lantern hanging points and the SkyTrack™ II hanging system give you flexible places to attach lights or storage.
For extra stability, the tent features Vango PowerFlex Fibreglass Poles, pre-angled poles for more head room and the TBS II Tension Band System, which helps brace the tent in windy conditions. The colour-coded poles make pitching simple, while the oversized Easy Pack Carry Bag makes packing away nice and easy.
