Calling witches and wizards of all ages!

Join astronomers from the Lime Tree Observatory and Planetarium for a magical, spooky journey through the Universe.

In their newly built immersive planetarium, you will visit many genuine astronomical objects with a Halloween-themed story.

After the immersive show, we will get the telescopes out and explore the natural night sky if the weather is good.

All ages are welcome. Halloween costumes are optional but also welcome!

This event takes place as part of the National Parks Dark Skies Fringe Festival 2022.

Please note that this has already taken place on 30/10/2022

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.
