Observing night - Visitors Welcome

An email, or website post, will be made typically on the Friday before the observation night to confirm the night is on and has not been cancelled due to poor weather etc. as well as confirming which observation site being used.

The gate will be open 30 minutes before Sunset.

Please arrive before sunset to allow ample time to set up in the light.

Please follow our Night Time Etiquette & Car Lights guidelines.

Imagers must not inconvenience others with unshielded lights when doing flats.

Observation people should not park next to imaging people as they tend to leave early and thus disrupt imaging sessions.

If you intend to leave early (especially before midnight), park closer to the entrance gate so as not to disturb others that stay later.
