SUNSET: 
Upcoming Astronomy Events
As a service to our community, Sky & Telescope lists astronomy-related events, including star parties, observatory public nights, astronomy talks, and more. Star parties offer dark skies and astronomical fellowship and often cater to families and feature special activities for kids. Public nights give the general public a chance to view the sky through large telescopes, and public talks are a great place to learn the fundamentals of the science and the craft.
You’ll also see online events offered here.

Julian StarFest
August 12, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 10:30 pm EDT
$40 – $100
StarFest is one of the premier events in Southern California for astronomy. Julian has dark, steady, skies and at 4,300 feet in elevation, offers superb astronomical viewing. Each year many of the San Diego Astronomy Association’s 800 active members meet in August on the grounds of the Menghini Winery (think fine wine, fresh baked hot apple pie, and some of the best star viewing around). During the event we are typically joined by over 1000 guests who will attend the free public star party at 6PM on Saturday, August 12.
