A foldable self-erecting tent ( 10 ) has an elongate fabric shell ( 11 ) and frame ribs ( 16 ). Frame ribs ( 16 ) define an interior space the of tent ( 10 ), and a collapsed and folded configuration in which the shell ( 11 ) is compacted and the frame is manipulated such that the tent ( 10 ) is stored in carry bag ( 25 ). The frame ribs ( 16 ) are adapted to be fitted into sleeves ( 17 ) and secured at their ends such that ribs ( 16 ) are bowed in arcuate configurations, the ribs ( 16 ) being made from a resilient spring like material urging against the shell ( 11 ) of fabric sheet material to form the interior space. The frame ribs ( 16 ) are moveable from the erect configuration where they are spaced apart to the collapsed configuration where they adjacent to each other into a substantially flat arrangement with a diameter of the transverse cross section being substantially identical to that of the erect configuration, the ribs ( 16 ) being adapted to be manipulated into a loop arrangement ( 23 ) thereby reducing the diameter in the collapsed and folded configuration, the tent in flat collapsed and folded configuration being adapted to be stored in the storage carry bag ( 25 ).
