Join us for an evening of lunar family fun as we explore our nearest neighbour in space.
The evening will include a visit to the Peter Harrison Planetarium, where you'll see the Moon up close. Then you'll enjoy a range of activities with the astronomers of the Royal Observatory, including having the chance to try your hand with one of the Observatory's modern telescopes and, weather permitting, see the Moon for yourself through them.
Throughout the evening, you'll have the chance to ask our astronomers all your questions about space and astronomy.
Please be aware that tickets can only be purchased online in advance of the event and are not available on the door.
