Dark Sky Event!

Join the Tucson Amateur Astronomy Association (TAAA) for an unforgettable night under the stars! Experience the wonders of the cosmos as TAAA members share their telescopes, insights, and enthusiasm to help you explore the brilliant night skies above Chiricahua National Monument.

Take your time viewing planets, star clusters, and other celestial sights through a variety of telescopes. Be sure to dress warmly for chilly evening temperatures, bring a red flashlight if you have one, and check your vehicle to make sure all exterior lights can be turned off to preserve night vision.

For updates or possible cancellations due to weather, please visit the park website at www.nps.gov/chir or check the park’s Facebook page after 3:00 p.m. on the day of the event.
