Sleep past sunrise, even in the UAE. The Coleman Skydome Darkroom is a dome tent with Coleman's Dark Room technology, which blocks 90% of sunlight and reduces the heat that builds up inside compared with a comparable Coleman tent, so the early sun does not wake you and the morning starts cooler. Pre-attached poles get it pitched in under 5 minutes.
It is for couples and small families who camp through the UAE winter season, from a desert night at Al Qudra to a weekend in Hatta or on the east coast. The 4 person has a 2.44 x 2.13 m floor (8 x 7 ft) and a 1.42 m centre height, and fits 1 queen airbed. Nearly vertical walls give 20% more headroom than traditional Coleman dome tents, the WeatherTec floor and seams help keep water out, and the frame is tested to winds of 56 km/h (35 mph). Need a different size? The Skydome Darkroom also comes as a 6 person and 8 person tent. Order today and it is delivered in 1-2 working days in the UAE.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Darkroom version really keep the tent dark and cooler?▼
Yes. Coleman's Dark Room technology blocks 90% of sunlight so you can sleep past sunrise, and it reduces heat inside compared with a comparable Coleman tent. It is not air conditioning, so in the UAE it is at its best in the cooler camping months.
Is the 4 person the right size for me?▼
The 4 person has a 2.44 x 2.13 m floor and a 1.42 m centre height and fits 1 queen airbed, so it suits a couple or a small family. The number is the maximum sleeping capacity; if you want room for bags and a cooler, or stand-up headroom, choose the 6 person (3.05 x 2.59 m, 1.83 m) or the 8 person (3.66 x 2.74 m, 1.93 m).
How long does it take to set up, and will it handle wind and rain?▼
The poles are pre-attached, so it pitches in under 5 minutes; Coleman recommends two people. The WeatherTec tub-like floor, welded corners and inverted seams help keep water out, and the frame is tested to winds of 56 km/h (35 mph) when staked and guyed out.
