Our meetings are hybrid meetings - you can visit us in person or you can join us online on Zoom, please check the schedule of meetings.If you are interested in astronomy, The Stratford upon Avon Astronomical Society is for you! Our members range from people with a casual interest in the subject to serious amateurs and professionals. You don't need any specialist knowledge to join, nor do you need to own a telescope. We normally meet twice a month at the splendid village hall in Alderminster, a few miles south of Stratford [details & map]. On the first Tuesday of each month, we have a club night covering topics oriented around observational astronomy. On the third Tuesday of each month we have a talk by a visiting guest speaker, usually a professional astronomer. Details of our next meeting are listed at the top of the page. For complete information about upcoming events, check the Schedule of Meetings section. If you're interested, simply turn up to one of our meetings. There's no need to book. Visiting is free, and there's absolutely no pressure to join. If you do want to join now, go to https://membermojo.co.uk/stratfordastro. For travel directions and more information, go to the About the Society section. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to Contact us. There is a total solar eclipse coming up on the evening of 12th August 2026. It won't be total in the UK, but still, much of the Sun will be obscured. If you want to observe it safely, you'll need some proper ISO-compliant eclipse glasses. If you would like to buy some, check out the UK Safe Solar Eclipse Glasses Sellers List. Better still - come to one of our meetings and we'll give you a pair for free!
