As a matter of fact, the whole ‘inner tent’ can be removed if you needed more living space during the day. The Heimplanet Original Cave is an icon in the world of camping and one of the first inflatable tents to hit the market. The Genus 400 will sleep four people, but once you’ve added four chairs and four adults in the living area, there isn’t going to be much room for anything else. The Coleman Blackout Octagon Tent is one of the heaviest picks in our best festival tents guide because it’s also one of the biggest.

Even if you don’t need two bedrooms, it may be worth considering the Genus 800 – the second bedroom can be easily removed and the space could be used as storage etc. The waterproofing is excellent, and the Heimplanet Original Cave is also the best festival tent for withstanding wind speeds of up to 110mph. If you intend to use them a lot – even if it’s only in the back of your garden – then they are probably not the best choice.Courtesy of flysheet curtains, it also transforms from blackout tent to one with 360 views of the bogroll-strewn campsite.
