Silver Festival 2026

While the midday sun shines high above, the Planetarium descends into darkness to reveal the wonders of the night sky.
Designed especially for seniors, this unique experience begins at local noon with a visit to Stonehenge Whangarei and view the sun through our solar telescopes (weather permitting), before transporting you beneath a brilliantly realistic night sky.
Journey among thousands of stars, discover the stories behind familiar constellations, and explore how our ancestors used the heavens to navigate, celebrate, and understand the world around them.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy an unforgettable voyage through the cosmos, all without leaving your seat.
