Star Party at Oracle State Park
Oracle State Park
Saturday, May 16, 2026 8 - 10 p.m.
Join us for a special evening of stargazing at Oracle State Park, an official International Dark Sky Park!
From 8:00-10:00pm once the sky is dark, the Tucson Amateur Astronomy Association (TAAA) will guide you through the night sky with several telescopes set up just outside the ranch house. View planets,stars, and deep space objects through high-powered telescopes and learn from knowledgeable, local astronomers!
Bring folding chairs if you'd like a guaranteed seat—patio space is limited and fills up quickly. We will have the historic Kannally Ranch House open throughout the event for those who would like to tour the house.
This star party is free with regular day-use admission or an annual state parks pass, and does not require registration.
Questions? Call the park at 520-896-2425 or email Ranger Michael at mbain@azstateparks.gov.
See you there!
