Join us for a family-friendly evening of cosmic discovery and adventure. Begin with an engaging Solar System talk, exploring planets, moons, and constellations. After a refreshment break, venture outdoors for a stargazing experience using telescopes and binoculars (weather permitting). It may be the Moon or the planets (if they are visible), or it may be deeper sky objects.

We're excited to announce that Stars in the Park is returning to Campbell Park for another unforgettable evening of astronomy. This event is suitable for all ages, but under-18s must be accompanied by an adult. Hosted by UK Astronomy, this special night is all about bringing the wonders of the universe to you.

Kick off the evening with an interactive presentation from UK Astronomy founder Ross Hockham BCAe, who will take you on a journey through our solar system. With the help of an inflatable sun and planets, Ross will share fascinating facts about each and how you can spot them from your own garden. After a break for hot drinks and biscuits, we'll head outside for an incredible stargazing experience using UK Astronomy's mobile observatory - a VW ‘Space' Crafter van packed with telescopes and binoculars. Get hands-on and explore some of the most awe-inspiring sights in our universe.

What if it's cloudy? No worries. We'll still have plenty of scopes and gear on hand, ensuring everyone can get a great view and learn more about the wonders of space. This hugely popular event has been a hit in previous years, and we can't wait to bring it back. Tickets will go on sale later this year, so keep an eye on the Parks Trust website for updates.
