Under the Paris sky… at night! This summer, join the teams from the Association Française d’Astronomie for free evenings of sky observation and activities. Thanks to the partnership with the ville de Paris, 20 Parcs et Jardins will be open to everyone between June 27 and September 5, 2026.
The AFA sky guides will point binoculars and telescopes toward the starry sky, away from the lights in the parks, offering Parisians of all ages, whether on their own or with family, observations and workshops on finding their way around the sky. What are these shining stars? How can you recognize them and find them again? Depending on the dates and times, they will be able to look through a telescope eyepiece at the craters of the moon, deep-sky objects such as nebulae and star clusters, or simply (re)discover the constellations of our celestial vault and the myths that accompany them. Let yourself be amazed by a journey through space and history, to the far reaches of the universe and the night. Can’t make it to this evening?
