Mulled wine... mince pies warmed over the log burning stove... festive music in the background... an entire forest of Christmas trees... and the stunning Universe glittering overhead!

For something really special at Christmastime, book a Christmas party with us. Hear some incredible stories of the Cosmos, tour the observatory and use our powerful telescopes to look all the way back in time and space at the planets of our solar system, galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters. You'll never forget your Christmas Party stargazing from the Observing deck at Kielder Observatory, we guarantee that :)

We'll have festive soup and bread to keep you going through the dark night as well as mulled wine and mulled cranberry juice for the drivers. Christmas as Kielder is wonderful fun and suitable for anyone.

We have many different packages available and we can design a fully catered event with transport to and from the Observatory or local accommodation and even live music if that's what you want.
