Christmas Stargazing at Exford Bridge
Thursday 16th December 2021 from 19:00pm to 21:00pm
Exford Bridge Tea Rooms
Chapel Street, Exford, Somerset, TA24 7PY
Join the team from Wild About Exmoor for an evening out with a difference!
Join us for a glass of mulled wine and a convivial evening at The Hub; all dressed up in Christmas party decorations!
You can come by yourself or make up a table of friends or family to kick off your Christmas celebrations!
Learn all about the Exmoor skies on our planetarium with a delicious festive three-course meal with plenty of opportunities to ask questions and chip in.
There will then be an option to take a crisp winter walk by moonlight out into the dark skies reserve.
We will use our telescopes and lasers to star-hop around the sky, identifying the prominent constellations and asterisms.
Please note that this has already taken place on 16/12/2021
