AirTek Kielder 8.0

Brand New for 2026

The AirTek Kielder 8.0 Vis-à-Vis 8–10 Man Inflatable Family Tent introduces a completely new concept to family camping. Featuring revolutionary inflatable technology and an industry-first modular design, the Kielder 8.0 stands at the forefront of Design, Innovation and Quality. This is not simply a large tent, it is a fully adaptable camping system built for modern families who want space without compromise.

Designed to comfortably accommodate 8 people as standard, and up to 10 depending on configuration, the Kielder 8.0 retains the ease of single-person pitching despite its impressive scale. Our ‘Precision Pitch’ system with pre-angled guy lines ensures maximum structural integrity while keeping setup straightforward and efficient.

The First Fully Modular Vis-à-Vis Tent

What truly sets the Kielder 8.0 apart is its fully removable side wall system , a first for any vis-à-vis inflatable tent. One entire side of the tent can be completely unzipped and removed, instantly transforming the structure into a vast open-plan living area.

This innovative feature allows you to:

• Create an enormous open entertaining space

• Increase ventilation and panoramic views

• Attach modular accessories and compatible extensions

• Adapt the layout depending on pitch size or trip length

Whether you want a social, open summer setup or a fully enclosed weather-ready lodge, the Kielder 8.0 adapts to your environment, not the other way around.

Intelligent Vis-à-Vis Living

The spacious vis-à-vis layout features two large opposing bedroom pods, separated by an expansive central living area. This design is ideal for families with older children, multi-generational camping, or shared trips with friends, providing both privacy and balance.

Inside the bedrooms, our premium ‘Sleep Easy+’ ultra-darkened fabric and quilted inner tents enhance comfort, insulation and condensation control. Zipped dividers allow flexible room configurations, while the generous proportions easily accommodate king or double air beds with storage space remaining.

The fully enclosed living area boasts an impressive standing height of approximately 235cm (7.7ft), creating a genuine sense of grandeur rarely found in tents of this class. Large panoramic windows flood the interior with natural light, while full mesh side doors provide exceptional airflow during warmer months.

Built for All Seasons

Constructed from premium 150 Denier Polyester with an exceptional 6,000mm Hydrostatic Head rating, the Kielder 8.0 delivers outstanding waterproof performance and durability for extended UK use and seasonal pitching.

For additional reassurance in unpredictable conditions:

• Webbing storm straps come pre-attached at all four corners

• Dual pegging storm strap system enhances ground anchorage

• Load distribution design increases stability in high winds

The tent can be fully sealed in cooler weather for warmth, while multiple ventilation points ensure airflow remains controlled in summer.

Advanced DURA-Air™ Technology

At the core of the Kielder 8.0 is our high-pressure DURA-Air Tube system [patent-pending GB2519763.3]. Independently tested to be over 200% stronger than standard TPU air systems, these reinforced tubes provide exceptional rigidity and long-term durability.

Each tube features an integrated pressure release valve, preventing over-inflation caused by pumping or temperature fluctuations. Inflation takes just minutes using the single-point system, while deflation is equally efficient thanks to our roll-direct-to-bag pack-down design — making storage simple despite the tent’s impressive size.

Designed Around Real Camper Feedback

The Kielder 8.0 has been developed through genuine conversations with families who wanted more space, more flexibility and more innovation without sacrificing ease of use. The result is a flagship inflatable tent that pushes boundaries and introduces a level of modular adaptability never before seen in a vis-à-vis design.

The AirTek Kielder 8.0 doesn’t just meet expectations, it changes what families should expect from a large inflatable tent.
