Join the Fairlight Astronomers at Hastings Country Park for a public viewing of the partial solar eclipse. The group will be set up in the car park near the Bale House, where experienced local astronomers will help visitors safely observe the Moon passing across the Sun.

Certified eclipse glasses, courtesy of Go Stargazing, will be available to help visitors enjoy the eclipse safely. Come along with family and friends to experience one of the UK's most impressive solar eclipses in decades from this spectacular coastal location. Observing is weather dependent.
