Friday 2nd February 2024 from 19:00pm to 21:00pm
Kelling Heath Holiday Lodge
Sandy Hill Lane, Holt, Norfolk, NR25 7HW
Join the team from the Norfolk Coast Partnership for a mesmerising evening under the vast night sky! The North Norfolk Astronomy Society will talk you through our night sky at the beautiful Dark Skies Discovery Site at Kelling Heath. If we’re lucky with the weather, we’ll also get to see the stars for ourselves!
Get ready to embark on an unforgettable journey through the cosmos including learning about the Voyager space programme and modern astronomy.
Refreshments will be available and there is parking and toilets on site. Please wear warm clothes and layers in case we are able to go outside to do some stargazing (weather permitting).
Please note that this has already taken place on 02/02/2024
