The Beverly-Begg Observatory is a Dunedin landmark located at 1A City Road, Belleknowes.

Come along to see and learn about our night sky. The team at the Dunedin Astronomical Society will provide a laser guided tour of the night sky where you can see the planets, constellations and learn about different types of stars.

In addition you will be able to look through a telescope and see some magnificent sights.

We will also open our large dome at the Beverly-Begg Observatory.

Come along for a fantastic night and bring along children, family and friends - our night sky has exciting things to see regardless of age and knowledge.

Bring along questions about space and we can try our best to answer them.
