Bath Abbey’s Solar Observation & Planetarium

Fri 4 August, 2023 at 6:00 pm until 8:00 pm

Silhouette of Bath Abbey at sunset

This illuminating evening gives you the chance to get up close and personal with the nearest star in our galaxy: The Sun.

Run in partnership with Bath Astronomers, you will have the chance to safely view the sun using specialist telescopes, discover fun sun facts and ask any burning questions you might have.

Discover how the sun travels through our skies during the year and learn about the solstices, equinox, equilux and the analemma.

A truly de-lightful time guaranteed!

Limited spaces available.

Tickets available from Eventbrite.
