Mt. Lemmon SkyCenter: SkyNights StarGazing Program

Explore the night skies from the summit of Mt. Lemmon using Arizona’s LARGEST publicly available telescopes! 

Under the guidance of a professional, visitors will enjoy a brief astronomy lecture, a light dinner, and an exclusive opportunity to observe astronomical objects and phenomena.  This five-hour program starts 2 hours before sunset and accommodates up to 28 people.  A minimum age of 7 is required for our attendees.

Mt Lemmon is located at 9,157ft in elevation and is on average 20-30 degrees colder than Tucson – yes, even in Spring and Summer. Guests are responsible for being aware of the weather and providing appropriate clothing for our cold adventure. Remember to wear comfortable closed-toed shoes.

 Our programs are weather dependent, and we contact you on the morning of the program to confirm or cancel.
