A Tent is a shelter consisting of sheets of fabric or other materials draped or attached over frames of poles. Wizarding tents are charmed to be larger inside than they look from the outside, somewhat resembling small homes with beds, chairs, tables, and a kitchen. At the 1994 Quidditch World Cup, all the fans camped out in tents. Many of them were equipped with showing-off magical details, despite the official instructions to keep the camp site as muggle-like as possible. For example, one tent was an extravagant silk palace surrounded by live peacocks (As the Malfoy family was known to have peacocks on their property, added to the fact that they were indeed at the World cup, some have speculated that this was their tent). Arthur Weasley had borrowed tents for the occasion from his office colleague at the ministry, Perkins, who was unable to go camping any more due to his lumbago. Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley also used Perkins' tent while searching for Horcruxes.
