Experience the magic of the hinterland night sky with Elysian Hills’ first-ever Stargazing Experience, presented in collaboration with StarLab. Set during the summer school holidays, this special evening has been designed to offer couples, families, and curious explorers a truly immersive and relaxed night under the stars.

The experience begins inside the Cosmodome Planetarium, where you’ll be guided through an interactive journey across the cosmos — learning about stars, planets, constellations, and the celestial stories behind them. You’ll then head outdoors to our pavilion and lawns for a telescope viewing session, where StarLab’s astronomer will lead you through a close-up look at the night sky’s most captivating objects.

To keep things cosy, we’ll provide blankets in baskets, and guests can warm up with complimentary hot chocolate, tea or coffee, plus biscuits and marshmallows.
