International Observe the Moon Night Star Party
Stellar Vista Observatory hosts Observe the Moon Night at Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park, Sept. 19, 2026 at 8:30 p.m.
Stellar Vista Observatory's public star party for International Observe the Moon Night lands on September 19, 2026 at 8:30 p.m. at Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park, with September 20 held as a backup date. The observatory's public star parties are open to everyone and typically include telescopes, binoculars, and volunteers to help you find things. A $5 per vehicle state park fee applies. The dunes are a genuinely dark site south of Duck Creek toward Kanab, and the drive down Highway 89 makes it a long but rewarding evening for guests already spending a day in Kane County.
