Adults Exclusive Stargazing & Planetarium Experience
Saturday 26th March 2022 from 19:00pm to Sunday 27th March 2022 00:30am
The Observatory Science Centre
Herstmonceux, Hailsham, East Sussex, BN27 1RN
Come and enjoy the fabulous atmosphere surrounding the Observatory at night; it is an entirely different experience!
This evening includes a presentation in our sizeable inflatable planetarium (or one of our observatory domes). This means that 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.
The planetarium will not accommodate everyone at one time so there will be 3 shows during the evening to make sure everyone engages with this fantastic experience.
You can come to The Centre from 7 pm onwards regardless of the time you have booked for your planetarium show. The Centre closes at half-past midnight.
Please note that this has already taken place on 26/03/2022
