The Best Vango Tents & Awnings (UK 2026)
Vango is one of the UK's most trusted camping brands, best known for its AirBeam inflatable tents and awnings that pitch in minutes. Here's how the range compares and which suits you.
Quick answer
Vango covers poled and AirBeam inflatable tents and awnings, from compact hiking tents (like the Nevis and Orion) to large family air tents and drive-away awnings. For quick, easy pitching of a big tent, an AirBeam model is the pick; for hiking, a lightweight poled Vango. All emphasise solid weatherproofing and thoughtful features - choose for your group and how you camp.
What to look for
Across the Vango range, decide between poled (lighter, cheaper) and AirBeam inflatable (fast, easy pitching). Match the size to your group, check the hydrostatic head and features (blackout options, porches, living areas), and for awnings, the connection to your vehicle. Vango's reputation for weatherproofing and build makes them a dependable choice across camping styles.

What is Vango AirBeam?
