Planetarium show: Are we alone in the universe? What could ‘life’ look like? How would we find it? Join us in our inflatable planetarium to explore these big questions and journey through the cosmos in the hunt for life beyond planet Earth.

Stargazing: Step outside to gaze at the night sky and look through telescopes with local astronomers from Abingdon Astronomical Society and Marcham Astronomy Group who will share their passion and knowledge as your cosmic tour guides.

Activities: We’re thrilled to welcome a special guest—Oxford’s very own Space Store! They’ll be bringing VR headsets and adding an exciting hands-on experience to explore how we can view planets beyond our solar system.

Enjoy an astro-amazing evening of stargazing, planetarium show and fun and educational astronomy-themed activities.
