STARGAZING IN
NORTHUMBERLAND DARK SKY PARK
Experience the incredible starry skies above Northumberland with astronomers from the Stargazing team at the Twice Brewed Inn. Located within the protected Dark Sky park, the venue benefits from minimal light pollution, meaning you’ll have a clear view of the Milky Way arching across the sky and see thousands more stars than can normally be spotted from our towns and cities.

Which Stargazing Event Should I Choose?
Many of our regular evening events suit a range of abilities and ages, so we recommended you choose your event by selecting a date, start time or topic which suits you. Our guides are hugely passionate and experienced at tailoring information to each individual. We have over 25 telescopes, ensuring every guest has plenty of opportunity to view the night sky and ask questions to their ability & interest.
We cover events for all ages, including children and families and for all experience levels. We also host guided events for astrophotography, with our resident photographer and Stargazing guide Wil Photography, who is a Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society. It's possible to book Stargazing & Planetarium events for private groups or for special occasions, please just get in touch.
Use of "The Space..." and a planetarium show is included in every event.
We hope you have a fantastic time!
