NRF|SAAO Cape Town Open Night

August 9 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm

Join us for Open Nights at the South African Astronomical Observatory (SAAO) in Cape Town, held on the second and fourth Saturday of every month.

Each evening begins with an engaging presentation on astronomy or a related field of science, followed by a guided tour of the Observatory’s rich history—including our library, museum, and the historic 120-year-old McClean Telescope.

Weather permitting, guests will have the opportunity to enjoy stargazing through the McClean and additional smaller telescopes.

    • Gates open at 7:30 PM.
    • Free entry for children aged 6 and under.

Please email cptbookings@saao.ac.za or call +27 21 447 0025 if you have any queries regarding bookings.
