Public Star Party at Pflugerville 1849 Park – November 1, 2024

Nov 1 @ 7:00 pm – 10:00 pm

The public is invited to look in our telescopes to observe the sky. We’ll show such objects as Venus, Saturn, Jupiter, comet Tshusenstan-Atlas, galaxies, nebulae, star clusters, and more.

Festivities will take place at the football field by the restroom/picnic table pavilion in the NW corner of the park by parking lot B (see map below).

Registration is not required. There is no charge for entry or the star party itself. Drinks and snacks will be available. Outside food and drinks are allowed. No glass containers.

Please don’t bring a dog, unless it is a service animal; we prefer not to have dogs around the telescopes in the dark. Smoking is not permitted in the area of the telescopes because the smoke can damage optical equipment. Public consumption of alcoholic beverages is not allowed in the park.

If the weather on a scheduled star party day seems questionable for viewing, you can check our website or call the City of Pflugerville Parks and Recreation department.
