Up coming events.

We are super excited to announce that UK Astronomy will be visiting and joining Wil Photography at Twice Brewed Stargazing!

As part of our 10 year anniversary, from 18th - 20th January, it just happens to tie in with their Dark Skies festival. So check out their events and book to meet us both and enjoy the dark skies above us together.

Have you ever thought about the possibility of other life in our galaxy, and wondered where they might live or what they might look like? Do you gaze at the night sky in wonder, pondering the names of the constellations and the identity of that bright object near the Moon? Ever wanted to explore our universe to see planets, nebula or even a galaxy? These and other questions will be answered as you step into a cosmic adventure like never before, as the marvels of outer space come to life in the UK Astronomy Charities Planetarium in Friars Square Shopping Centre.

Back by overwhelming demand! Prepare to embark on a mesmerising journey through the cosmos beneath a breathtaking starlit canopy!

Join us, in collaboration with UK Astronomy, for an unparalleled opportunity to delve deep into the mysteries of our solar system and its celestial wonders, all against the backdrop of Stowe's enchanting surroundings.
