What does ⛺ Tent mean?
A simple camping tent on its own. It stands for camping, music festivals, scouting trips and sleeping outdoors, and it can also mean setting up a temporary base somewhere. It is more about the shelter itself, while 🏕️ shows a whole campsite and 🎪 is a circus big top. Families use it for backyard sleepovers, and festival-goers for pitching up in a muddy field.
⛺ Tent is an emoji from the Travel & Places category (city scenes & attractions), added in Emoji 0.6 in 2010.
