Join 1st Tambourine Bay Sea Scouts for an evening of fun and excitement as they try to break a Guinness World Record! There will be a fire, marshmallows, a warm drink and cakes to buy.
7.00pm: Event registration
8.00pm: Stargazing Live broadcast commences (World Record attempt will take place between 8.00pm and 9.00pm)
10.00pm: Event concludes
You will need to bring your telescope or binoculars to this event – please ensure you register for a ‘Single World Record Participant – BYO Telescope/Binoculars’Ticket. If you do not own a telescope or binoculars you can purchase them when you register on the event website. To participate in the World Record each person will need their own individual telescope/binoculars. Sharing these items will result in disqualification from the attempt.
The event will still take place if there is cloudy / rainy weather – the record only requires a 10 minute viewing window on the Moon for the record attempt, so the organisers will make every effort to participate. Unfortunately, if the weather does not clear for the 10-minute viewing window, the venue will be disqualified and the number of participants won’t count towards the World Record. Please note: in the case of a severe weather event, please check the @WorldRecordStargazing Facebook page for event updates.
While there is no minimum / maximum age for participants, please bear in mind that World Record participants must be able to look through a telescope/binoculars for a 10 minute period while remaining in a specific area. Minors should be accompanied by a parent/guardian and be supervised at all times.
Make sure you bring a jacket/warmer clothes as it may be cold, and an umbrella/poncho in the event of wet weather. Please note: this is an alcohol and drug-free event.
Come along and join in a fun night and be a world record holder.
