About the event

Mt Buller Star Fest

Get ready for an extraordinary celestial experience at Star Fest!

 

This stellar event is an opportunity for astronomy enthusiasts and the general star-gazer alike.  Join us on top of the mountain for an uninterrupted view of the galaxy above and discover so much more of the night sky with the help of the Astronomy Society of Victoria.

 

Take in the sunset and as the sky goes from golden to dark we'll peer into telescopes, learn from astronomers and get expert advice on how to take great nightscape photographs with various sessions available.   

 

Whether you're an avid photographer or simply curious about the mysteries of the universe, this event promises to be a feast for the senses. 

 

Mt Buller is spoiled with a dark sky that makes for great star viewing.  To make the most of the event it's recommended you book a stay in one of the many accommodation options on the mountain, bring warm layers and prepare yourself for a mystical and special evening exploring the wonders of the Milky Way and beyond.
