Nemo Aurora Highrise Stand-Up Family Camping Tent

The Aurora Highrise is Nemo's standing-height family camping tent. Steep sidewalls give it real interior volume rather than headroom only in the middle, and it has two doors, two vestibules and large rain-protected windows for ventilation and a view.

Who it's for

Families who want to stand up to get dressed. The Aurora Highrise is a standing-height camp tent with steep sidewalls, big rain-protected windows and a floor plan you can actually live in for a week - school holidays, long weekends, and any trip where the tent is the house rather than a place to sleep.

How much room it really has

5.8 sq m in the 4P and 7.7 sq m in the 6P, at standing height. Steep walls mean that floor area is usable right to the edges instead of tapering away where you want to put a bag.

Two large doors and two vestibules, so nobody climbs over anybody and the boots and the camp chairs stay out of the weather.

Weather and season

Large rain-protected windows let you leave ventilation open through a shower instead of sealing yourselves in - which is what turns a wet afternoon from grim into pleasant. Durable fabrics meet flame-retardant standards without harmful chemicals, over a heavy-duty 150D polyester floor.

Pitching it

Simple setup, Gatekeeper door clips that hold the doors open rather than letting them flap, and Nightlight Pockets overhead that turn a head torch into room lighting.

Weight, and what you carry

7.2 kg in the 4P and 8.46 kg in the 6P. This is a drive-in tent, and the oversized duffel storage bag is the detail you appreciate at the end of a trip - packing up does not become a wrestling match.

What's in the box

Tent, fly, poles and the oversized duffel bag.
