The present invention provides an instant tent with an integral vent and corresponding rain fly for providing the tent with continuous ventilation while protecting the vent and interior of the tent from adverse weather conditions. The frame of the tent includes a hub, a plurality of roof poles and eave poles pivotally coupled to the hub, and a plurality of leg poles coupled to the corresponding roof poles. Coupled to the frame is an enclosed canopy which includes the vent at a top portion of the canopy to allow air from continuously entering and exiting the interior of the tent. The rain fly is attached to the canopy and corresponding eave pole, and is disposed proximate the vent. Thus, the instant tent of the present invention is provided with secure and continuous ventilation, and is opened and closed without requiring additional assembly of components.
