13th Acadia Night Sky Festival
September 23
An event every day that begins at 12:00 am, repeating until Sunday, September 25, 2022
Join us for one of the premier night sky events on the Eastern Seaboard. The 13th Acadia Night Sky Festival is set for Sept. 21-25, 2022.
Help us celebrate the starlit skies of Downeast Maine through education, science and the arts.
Maine’s spectacular rocky coast is home to Acadia National Park, and some of the last pristine, star-filled night skies in the eastern United States. Here, the Milky Way shines bright in the largest expanse of naturally dark sky east of the Mississippi River.
With the rapid loss of dark skies to light pollution receiving national attention, Maine is increasingly being referred to as one place “that still has stars.” We invite you to discover Downeast Maine’s unique commitment to protecting the quality of its starlit nights at this annual celebration.
