Sidewalk Astronomy

Sidewalk Astronomy

Bendigo’s favourite astronomy event takes place roughly once a month on Friday nights right outside Discovery. Hosted by the Astronomical Society of Victoria’s Bendigo branch, Sidewalk Astronomy invites passers-by to look through shared telescopes, chat with local experts and explore the night sky above. These relaxed, family-friendly evenings make stargazing fun, welcoming and inspiring for all ages.
