POSTPONED TO SATURDAY 2nd MARCH.

If you already have tickets with us they will be automatically transferred to Saturday 2nd March.

Come and join us at Findon Place to enjoy the fabulous Dark Skies above the Southdowns National Park with enthusiastic astronomers from the Worthing Astronomers Club. Using a selection of portable telescopes you’ll be guided around the cosmos.

Stargazing experiences are ideal for anyone interested in astronomy and getting outside into the great outdoors. It’s good fun exploring the Universe with the help of experienced astronomers, learning to navigate the constellations and observing incredibly distant objects through large telescopes. You’ll gain valuable knowledge and skills from astronomers and learn how to correctly set up a telescope and see stunning celestial objects. View and photograph some of the beautiful sights you see and enjoy this exciting experience together.

We will then use one of our large telescopes to take you out on a journey across the universe. Along the way you’ll be able to view star systems, star clusters, nebulae and galaxies far beyond our own in the telescope, while our astronomer gives you the background story to each view. If the moon and / or planets are visible at the time then we’ll visit them too with the telescope. We’ll be lighting our fire pits and offering a selection of hot drinks, toasting marshmallows over the fire and enjoying the night sky.

Cloud & Rain: In the UK cloud and rain is always a threat to any stargazing event and we will review closer to the date if the event can go ahead or be moved to another date.

Suitability: Our Stargazing Experience Nights are suitable for individuals, couples and families.

CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE UNDER THE AGE OF 16 MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A RESPONSIBLE ADULT
Duration: approximately 2 hours What to bring: Please wrap up warm - gloves, hats and scarves as you will be outside most of the time, blankets too. We won’t have any external lights on so that we reduce light pollution giving us a clearer view of the night skies so you might find a torch helpful.
