Do they still call that "vis a vis"??

I cant seem to find any.

Help would be much appreciated.

Wanted as a weekend / festival tent for myself and 1 / 2 teenagers - I would like to be the other end of the tent from them :)

Not too heavy as at festivals it has to be pushed on a trolley.

Any suggestions?
Many Thanks

That is perfect - thank you :) the only downside is the long tunnel effect - have you had experience with it in bad weather?

Anyone have this Freedom Trail Airedale? looks to me like it has a SIG??

Or (no SIG, except the bedrooms of course) the four-berth version of this?

Tunnel tents are remarkably stable in wind, just try and pitch "bum to the wind".
Our largest tunnel tent is the Ontario 8 which is 7.5m x 3.7m and has withstood everything the great British weather has thrown at it, as has my little Licata 400, whilst others around me have fallen.

Or this

quechua base seconds 4.2

I got one last year and it's what we are taking to a small family festival, I've got two teen boys and they'll be in one side and I'll be in the other.

When the tent is folded up it's easy carried via the two straps, you carry it a bit like a rucksack. At the festival I went to last year at least 50% of my camping neighbours had a quechua base seconds 4.2, which prompted me to buy it.

this is what it looks like



It doesn't have a sig, if you watch on youtube you'll see it has a bathtub groundsheet. It's still very easy to pitch...a minute or two.

That's a great idea, but maybe a bit pricey for a festival tent?

Khyam were selling off their Winnipeg vis a vis tents cheaply last year, I wonder if there are still any about?
