Stargazing with Live Cello
Head to the Blue Mountains and partner the wonders of the night sky with the tranquil sounds of cellist Emily Williams.
Overview
Pair the wonders of the night sky with the sweet sound of the cello at a new experience from Blue Mountains Stargazing. Taking over the Wentworth Falls lookout in the Blue Mountains from 8.30pm on Saturday, December 10, this symphonic stargazing session will feature live performances from local cellist Emily Williams and celebrated didgeridoo player Charlie McMahon.
Attendees will arrive to experience the sunset over Jamison Valley before being treated to the music of Williams and McMahon. From there, an astronomy workshop will be led by astrophysicist Dimitri Douchin with the assistance of laser guides. The workshop will feature constellation storytelling; star observation using the naked eye, telescopes and binoculars; and a Q&A with Douchin.
As you gaze up at the sky, you'll also be treated to a free hot chocolate before Williams returns for a final cello performance.
Tickets will set you back $110 for adults, $80 for children and $90 for concession tickets.
