Where music and science meet –

Listen to the amazing Sydney Youth Orchestra performing Gustav Holst's The Planets and more starry music before you embark on a evening of star and planet gazing.

Dr Luke Barnes from Western Sydney University will give you an introduction in the stargazing and our Aboriginal educators will share his knowledge and his stories of the night sky from a First Nation's perspective. 

The Sydney City Skywatchers  will provide guidance with their amazing telescopes and our campfires will keep you warm on a winter's night. 

Join in for a beautiful night of music, science and incredible nature! Picnics are very welcome!
