Fusing your favourite circus and space travel, Mission to the Moon is out of this world!
About this Event

Let's discover space...

First we'll start our evening with a Mission to the Moon, taking you on a captivating journey with three quirky, acrobatic astronauts, blending circus artistry, clowning, and real space science!

Inspired by NASA’s upcoming Artemis program — which will see humans once again step foot on the Moon — this show imagines jugglers defying gravity and tumbling among the stars!

With a mix of classic circus skills, laughter, and exciting space facts, Mission to the Moon offers a fresh, imaginative take on our fascination with space. Get ready for a performance that’s as entertaining as it is enlightening.

But that's just the beginning! We'll then have a special visit from the Mornington Peninsula Astronomical Society Team who will share with us some cool facts about the moon. You'll then be able to see the moon up close through their extra special telescopes.

It will be a full moon that evening so an amazing chance to see it in it's full glory.
