Celebrate the dark skies of the North Pennines at our evening workshop held at Nenthead Mines, near Alston, Thursday, 30 October, 4pm to 8pm.

During this workshop you will learn how to make your own paper lantern that you will get to take away with you. The lantern-making was to be followed by a mine trip but due to unforeseen circumstances, this portion of this event has had to be cancelled. We apologise for any disappointment this will cause.

Suitable for children ages 7+.

This event is part of the North Pennines Stargazing Festival running from 22 October to 2 November 2025 – www.NorthPenninesStarFest.org
