Stargazing Live at Roma Street Parklands

Overview

Been meaning to get into stargazing but don't know where to start? This could be your gateway event. On Wednesday, March 23, you can join thousands of Aussies attempting to smash the World Record for Most People Stargazing Simultaneously Across Multiple Locations in Roma Street Parklands.

There is lots of starry-eyed fun going down across the country, but the Roma Street Parkland celebrations kick off at 7pm. There'll be a little something for stargazers of all levels, with Dr Karl and Jimmy Giggle on hand to host the proceedings.

From 8pm, catch the ABC's live stargazing broadcast on the huge outdoor screen, hosted by Julia Zemiro and physicist Brian Cox. There'll also be telescopes available to order, and food trucks on hand in case all that gazing leaves you feeling peckish.
