Star Party at Bella Vida 360°

Join us on Saturday, September 12th, from 6:00–10:00 PM for an unforgettable evening of wine, conversation, and some of Oregon's darkest skies.

After the incredible response to last year's Star Party, we're thrilled to welcome back the knowledgeable astronomers from Carlton Observatory to Bella Vida 360°, where they'll bring multiple telescopes and guide guests through the night sky.

Bring a blanket or lawn chair, settle in with a glass of your favorite Bella Vida wine, and enjoy panoramic 360° views as daylight fades into a sky filled with stars. Throughout the evening, Carlton Observatory astronomers will have multiple telescopes set up and will guide guests through constellations, planets, star clusters, and other celestial wonders while answering questions along the way.

Wine will be available for purchase by the glass or bottle, and you're welcome to bring a picnic to enjoy as you experience the vineyard after dark.

This event also supports Carlton Observatory, a nonprofit organization dedicated to inspiring curiosity through astronomy, science education, and community outreach. A portion of the evening helps further their mission of making astronomy accessible to learners of all ages.

Whether you're a lifelong astronomy enthusiast or simply looking for a unique evening under the stars, we invite you to experience one of the Willamette Valley's most memorable nights at Bella Vida 360°.
