Solarsphere

AUGUST 10th-13th 2018 - MID WALES.

Solarsphere Astronomical & Music Festival is a small, family friendly 'Star Camp' in Wales where you can learn about the Cosmos in an informal, relaxed setting. 

If the weather is kind to us, there will be opportunity to look through specialist solar telescopes to view the activity on the Sun, and if you don't have your own scope to bring to look at the night sky, don't worry, we have the lovely Jonathen and Tracey from the North Wales Astronomy Society and the awesome guys (James and Steven) from Cosmos Planetarium, who will share their knowledge and scopes in our public viewing area on the Astronomers field. 

In addition to the practical, there are plenty of interesting talks throughout the weekend from leading scientists such as Astronomy Journalist, Author and Presenter,Will Gater, plus, Senior Scientific Advisor for The European Space Agency, Professor Mark McCaughrean! 

Not to forget of course, Fancy dress Friday (SciFi & Music themed 'let your hair down' night), wonderful live music, children's space workshops and art and craft activities that the whole family can get involved with, a pop up Solarsphere choir (no singing experience required.... just join in and learn a few songs ready for your live performance)!, Voyager storyboarding workshop, and more... SEE WEBSITE FOR FULL LINE UP! www.solarsphere.events
