Winter Solstice Celebrations

Sunday 21st June 2026

Families: 5.00 pm - 7.00 pm
Grown-ups: 8.00 pm - 10.00 pm 
Theme: Antarctica 
Join us for our Winter Solstice events adopting the themes of our Antarctic expeditioners and enjoy food and entertainment throwing back to the time of Mawson. Celebrate the shortest day of the year with fellow “expeditioners” by coming along to the Observatory, being entertained, enjoying a snack and drink (included in the ticket price) and seeing what is in the night sky on the longest night of the year. Places are limited and bookings are essential. 

We have a special session for young people – accompanied by a parent – from 5.00 to 7.00 pm and another session for everyone else from 8.00-10.00 pm. 

Bookings will become available closer to the date.
