August 31, 3:00 a.m. – 5:30 a.m.

Join us at The Heide Observatory at Hawthorn Hollow for a celestial treat! Early mornings in August offer the perfect opportunity to witness the planets rising just before the break of dawn. Marvel at the sight of Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and perhaps even Mercury!

As the sun begins to rise, we’ll gather for a delicious pancake and sausage breakfast (with coffee and juice available) while soaking in the serene morning ambiance of Hawthorn Hollow. Please note that the image above may not accurately depict the pancakes served, but rest assured, we’ll do our best to tantalize your taste buds!

This event is weather-dependent and will be rescheduled if the forecast shows more than 40% cloud cover. As the event is scheduled early, please check the email you used to purchase tickets before heading out.

Dress appropriately for nighttime outdoor weather.

Weather backup night will be the very next morning 09/01 at 3:00 am.

Get your tickets here. Tickets for this special event are limited, so be sure to reserve yours today!

We look forward to sharing this enchanting experience with you!
