WoW 16 – Autumn 2026

WolvAS Observing Week 16 (WOW)
The Autumn 2026 WOW event is being held from Thursday the 8th to Sunday the 18th of October, with the New Moon on Sunday the 11th of October.
NOTE: With the new moon being on the 1st Sunday of WoW 16, we are starting this event on the Thursday to provide extra observing opportunities in dark skies.
The event is for Wolvas Members only, although we also welcome visitors from other astronomical societies if they notify us prior to the event.
Membership is only £10 a year, so if you would like to attend please join the society using this link: Membership
The location is in the rural area of west Shropshire, which enjoys very dark skies giving a great opportunity for all types of astronomy.
We have the use of a private event field, so do not get disturbed by other campers. Caravans, Campervans and Tents are all welcome.
There are toilet blocks on the event field and showers over on the main campsite.
It is not necessary to book for this event however, please let us know if you are planning on coming so we can keep an eye on the numbers.
Full details are on the Members Forum.
