Family Moongazing Evening at Allan Bank

Join us for a family-friendly evening learning about the moon as it reaches its brightest and most visible phase.

Explore the wonders of the moon. Our astronomy expert will take you on a tour of the moon on the big screen.

Then, weather permitting, we will head outside and get hands-on using telescopes and binoculars to go in search of moon craters and mountains and learn more about the phases of the moon. 

The content of this evening is family-orientated and suitable for adults with children of all ages.

Please note:

  • Please park in the village and make your way up the driveway to Allan Bank. Members of our team will be there to meet you and direct you from here.
  • Bring a torch and binoculars if you have them. Wear warm clothing and suitable footwear for walking on a footpath which is well graded but slightly rough in places.
  • The indoor area is wheelchair accessible. The outdoor part of the evening involves a 50m walk on well graded footpath. We can accommodate those with accessibility needs if we know in advance.
  • Children must be accompanied by an adult.
  • Warm drinks (tea/coffee/hot chocolate), fruit squash and biscuits will be available all evening.
  • If the weather is poor or cloudy the event will still go ahead. Our astronomers will instead take more time to take you on a virtual tour of the universe on the screen!
