Shopping for a 10 person tent can be a hard.  A 10 person tent is going to be a really big tent and when you have that large of a tent, every factor like material, stitching, and extra features can add up quickly.  If you opt for more premium materials you're going to see a much higher price than what you'd see on a 1 man tent.

If you're planning to bring 10 people with you on your next camping trip, obviously, the first thing you are going to need to do is to find a 10 person tent that can hold everybody in your party inside it comfortably.

While 10 person tents are also useful for smaller groups who need a little bit of wiggle room when they sleep, they are essential for a camping party of 8-10 people.  You do not want to fit 10 people in an 8 person tent; it's always better to opt for a slightly larger size rather than a smaller one. 

Whenever you find yourself in the market for a 10 person tent, the first thing you need to consider is the type of material you need. The two choices for material are natural and synthetic. Natural fibers can offer protection against the elements and can last longer under the proper storage and cleaning conditions, but some synthetics, like nylon and rayon, are harder to tear, while other types of polyester simply hold up better to stronger weather conditions.  If you don't know what material you need, we'd recommend going with a synthetic material.  These usually hold up longer and cost less.

You also want to make sure that 10 people can actually fit inside the tent comfortably, or else it could start to feel a little like being stuck in a crowded (but very soft) elevator. As a matter of common courtesy, the people in your party are going to insist on privacy for any time they change their clothes or clean themselves, so look for tents that offer plenty of room dividers so everyone can have their own space.

Last, but not least, you need to make sure the tent that fits your budget. You can expect to pay anywhere from $249 to $649 for a tent that can hold up to 10 people.

This price range may be surprising to seasoned backpackers who wouldn't blink at shelling out $250 for a 1 person tent.  The difference between the two is that 1 person tents that cost $250 are optimized to be lightweight and fit in your backpack.  10 person tents are gigantic and are not meant to be carried around.  These are made strictly for car camping and can be extraordinarily heavy (75+ pounds).

 Since the materials aren't as lightweight, they don't cost as much which is why the prices are lower than you'd expect when scaling up from 1 person tents, but also have a pretty wide range since you can get some lighter weight 10 person tents if you're willing to pay more.

It takes a lot to get a camping trip right; planning, organization, coordination, and cooperation are the keys to ensuring the difference between a good camping trip and a great one.

One of the most important means to that end is to make sure you have a tent big enough for everyone who is coming with you so they do not get left out in the cold.

Having a 10 person tent can provide a lot of people with a lot of space, or it can provide a large sleeping area for a small group.

Whether you want a natural fiber tent or a synthetic fiber tent depends on how much weight you can carry, whether or not you have any guests who have any issues with synthetic fabrics, and how aggressive you expect the weather to be for the time of year you are planning your trip.

Hopefully, this article will help you figure out which tent is the best one for the 10 people you decide to take with you on your camping trip. Happy trails!
