The evening consists of a "Tour" of the Night Sky highlighting the constellations on show, and the positions of some of the objects visible through the telescopes.

For the next public observing night check the events calendar.

If you have been to an observing evening in the past, note that we have changed location. Please park in the car park between the old and the new vistors' centres. If you are arriving late and are OK to walk along the car park, please try and park at the end of the car park nearest the old vistors' centre to reduce light polution. Remember to bring a a torch with you!
