Frequently asked questions

How big is a 6-person tent?

A 6-person tent typically offers 80 to 100 square feet of floor space, which is enough room for six sleeping pads side by side. However, it may feel more comfortable for four or five people plus gear. Some models also have vestibules or awnings for extra storage or shade.

Are 6-person tents good for family camping?

Yes, 6-person tents are a popular choice for families. They offer enough space for kids and adults to sleep comfortably, with extra room for bags or even a play area during rainy weather. Some models come with dividers to create separate sleeping spaces for added privacy.

How much does a 6-person tent weigh?

The weight of a 6-person tent depends on the materials and features. Basic models can weigh around 6–8kg, while more robust tents with extra poles, weatherproofing or room dividers may be closer to 10–12kg. These tents are best suited for car camping rather than backpacking.
