This large and accommodating 3-season tent is a perfect base camp or family campsite tent, with plenty of space for people and gear or as a social hang out.
Nemo says: With a spacious standing-height design, simple setup, and vibrant colors, the Aurora Highrise tent adds a dose of joy to every family camping adventure. Steep sidewalls provide massive interior volume, while large rain-protected windows add ventilation and great views. Two large doors and vestibules offer easy entry and plenty of room for keeping camping essentials organized and out of the weather. This versatile and inviting home under the stars features high-quality materials and is ideal for escaping with the whole family or simply spreading out as a couple.
Aurora Highrise uses durable fabrics that meet flame-retardant standards without the use of harmful chemicals. The heavy-duty 150D polyester floor is printed with a colorful, charming pattern to keep spirits high, with Nightlight Pocket™ headlamp diffusers, multiple gear pockets, and Gatekeeper™ door clips to complete the package. And when it’s time to rejoin civilization, an oversized duffel storage bag makes packing up a breeze. With the Aurora Highrise tent, the sky is truly the limit on where you might call home.
Our Verdict
This large free-standing tent is a great base to explore from, but it also makes a good area to hang out in when back at camp. This 4-person tent has an amazing 60 square feet of internal floor space, the high sides culminate at the centre point, which is almost two meters high (190 cm), so you have plenty of room to stand inside.
The tent has two doors and two vestibules, a spacious “front door” that can be rolled away, or additional tarp poles to be used as an awning. The front door leads into the internal large door, which, when fully opened, can be stashed into a pocket so it’s not a trip hazard. The Aurora also has a “back door”, which helps ventilate the tent.
I also have to say I love the pattern on the tent floor.
