Stargazing events

Unfortunately due to industrial action this event has been cancelled. We're sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Join us for a special night of space exploration, special planetarium shows and practical demonstrations. There will be telescope stations to view the night sky (weather permitting) supported by Liverpool Astronomical Society.

There will be a series of fascinating talks from many of our usual speakers, plus some new ones – more information will be announced soon. Chat with members and staff from Liverpool Astronomical Society, University of Liverpool, MajorTim.Space Ambassadors and many more in the Skyline gallery.
