The Exmoor Dark Skies Festival returns in 2022 to celebrate the tremendous nighttime skies above Exmoor Dark Sky Reserve, a region of protected landscape free from the worst effects of light pollution.

The festival boasts over fifty events suitable for all ages that will take place all over Exmoor National Park. The Exmoor National Park Authority (ENPA) will organise these events in collaboration with local businesses, astronomers and astronomy groups.

To help promote the festival, we have featured the events which involve practical stargazing. For a full schedule of events, please see the Exmoor Dark Skies Festival official website or download the programme.

The festival is sponsored by the Somerset Business Agency.

Go Stargazing wishes the Exmoor Dark Skies Festival every success, and we hope everyone attending the events enjoys incredible views of the stars. Clear skies!

Please note that this has already taken place on 13/10/2022
