Over fifty events in celebration of Exmoor’s<br />
spectacular starry skies are set to take place<br />
across the National Park this autumn as bookings<br />
open for the region’s third annual Dark Skies<br />
Festival.<br />
From 14th <strong>October</strong> to 3rd November venues across<br />

as one of three designated International Dark Skies<br />
Reserves in the country, to host a range of experiences inspired by the wonders of the<br />
night sky. The Festival caters for a wide range of ages <strong>and</strong> interests with highlights for<br />
families including this year’s Astro Party at Wimbleball Lake, a 360-degree<br />
planetarium experience in Dunster, Bampton or Barnstaple, or the National Park’s<br />
first ever Dark Skies Big Adventure with the National Trust. The full programme is<br />
available at www.exmoor-nationalpark.gov.uk/darkskies festival or from National Park<br />
Centres at Dulverton, Dunster or Lynmouth. For more information phone the<br />
