Kelling Heath Holiday Park
Weybourne, Holt, Norfolk, NR25 7HW
Kelling Heath Star Party is the largest in the UK; hundreds of amateur astronomers meet under the dark skies of North Norfolk with various telescopes and equipment.
Public members are welcome to attend as overnight stargazers staying on-site and day/evening visitors, however should be mindful of the use of white light during the event and noise pollution in the mornings — mornings are for lie-ins after a long night observing (or in the bar!).
Please get in touch with Kelling Heath Holiday Park for enquiries and mention “Star Party” when booking.
Please note that this has already taken place on 16/03/2026
