About the event:
Enjoy an evening looking up at the night’s sky with a glass of English sparkling wine from a local vineyard. Our astronomy team will guide your through the stars. This evening includes a unique planetarium experience and the opportunity to chat to astronomy experts. This event makes the perfect gift experience for someone special.
Food and drinks will be available to purchase from our café.
This evening includes a presentation in our large inflatable planetarium. This means you don't have to worry about the clouds. However, if the weather is clear you will also be able to view through the telescopes and look at some fascinating night sky objects.
Don’t forget to wear warm clothing – you will be outside for much of the evening!
Did you know? Using red rather than white light torches means your eyes are better adapted to see in the dark. Our site is lit up with red lights during stargazing evenings and you can purchase red light torches in our shop or download an app such as NightVision Light in the Apple App Store.
Accessibility: please be aware that due to our historic building, all except one of our telescope domes are accessed by steep narrow stairs. Our site is otherwise accessible. If you are a blue badge holder, there are 5 parking bays available at the back of the building, please follow the signs.
