WHAT’S THE OCTAGON BLACKOUT LIKE?

The Octagon has been one of Coleman’s most popular tents since it was launched in 2015 and won Camping magazine’s coveted Tent Of The Year award. It’s unique yurt-like design provides 360° views and lots of living space. The ingenious hinged door is also a big selling point. So how do you improve what is already a winning formula? Well, for 2020, Coleman is for the first time offering a version which incorporates its equally popular BlackOut bedroom technology, letting you enjoy lazy mornings on the campsite.

Apart from its unique look, what made the original Octagon so good was its multitude of uses and the updated version is equally versatile. It works as a luxury glamping tent for two, a playroom for the kids or the perfect tent for up to eight festival-goers. The flysheet can be removed and the Octagon transforms into a bug-proof screened room perfect for the garden.

The easy to pitch, sturdy steel pole construction makes setting up camp a breeze and ensures maximum protection from wind. The flysheet has UV Guard sun protection, a 4,500mm hydrostatic head and taped seams, so you should be protected whatever the weather. Safety features like the fire retardant fabrics and zipper stoppers provide added peace of mind.
