Event Location

Kielder Observatory


The Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights, are among the most captivating natural wonders, yet also some of the most elusive. Join us as we share everything you need to know to witness this breathtaking phenomenon for yourself.

Throughout your visit, our expert and passionate astronomers will guide you on a journey of astronomical discovery. They’ll share their knowledge and stories of the universe, helping you connect with astronomy and make lasting memories. 

You’ll enjoy a specialist talk, explore the observatory and its telescopes, and take part in hands-on activities with meteorites or experiments with light. You’ll have the chance to ask our astronomers anything you like, enjoy a hot drink (including our famous hot chocolate) and browse our gift shop for a keepsake of your visit. 

Whenever possible throughout the night, you’ll observe the cosmos under some of the darkest skies in Europe through our powerful telescopes. Our astronomers will guide you to observe stars, constellations, planets, the Moon, and even distant galaxies. They’ll also share tips to help you continue your stargazing journey at home.  

You can take away information and literature covering many of the topics explored during your visit, so the memories and learning last long after you leave.
