Saturday 1st February 2025 from 18:45pm to 21:15pm

Brimham Rocks - National Trust
Summerbridge, Harrogate, North Yorkshire, HG3 4DW, Yorkshire and The Humber

Created over 100 million years before the first dinosaurs existed, Brimham Rocks is a popular spot with walkers and climbers during the day. At night, it’s eerily quiet and dark—perfect for a dark skies experience!

Timed to coincide with the darkest phase of the moon, you’ll view vast skies above filled with thousands of twinkling stars. Walk the path around these fantastic structures and the surrounding area on foot. Learn more about its geological history and the universe and starry heavens above.

While meandering, learn a secret sensory technique that’ll ramp up your WOW factor. Not only will you experience so much more, you’ll leave feeling fabulous.

Event darkness

The Moon has a big impact on the visibility of celestial bodies in the night sky. Try to plan your stargazing when there is no bright Moon at night as this is when the skies will be at their darkest.

The below chart shows if and when the skies will be at their darkest during this event. Moonlight is shown in light yellow and the Sun's twilight in light blue. Midnight on the date shown is shown as a white line with sunset to the left and sunrise the next morning to the right. A black background with stars shows the best times for stargazing.
