The Atlas Centre for Science Culture invites you to a memorable night of star gazing as part of the national Nuits des Etoiles event. Save the date for the evening of August 6, 2026, to explore the beauty of our universe in a special setting. This free event takes place in the heart of Seine-Saint-Denis, in the town of Saint-Ouen, where you’ll have the chance to spot a few shooting stars and other celestial mysteries.
From 8:30 p.m. to midnight, enjoy an evening solo or with friends and family to gaze at the night sky using star charts and observing instruments, guided by staff who will happily answer your questions and tell you more about the constellations, the planets currently visible in our patch of sky, and the famous Perseids making their return in August!
