Total Eclipse of the Park

The City of Watertown sits directly in the center of the “path of totality” and at approximately 3:22 PM on April 8, 2024, Watertown will plunge into darkness for three minutes and 39 seconds.

To mark this momentous occasion, the City of Watertown will host “Total Eclipse of the Park” at historic Thompson Park. Beginning at 11:00 AM, the event will feature viewing opportunities, entertainment, food trucks, educational exhibits and more.

Shuttle bus transportation will be available beginning at 10:30 AM from Northland Plaza (144 Eastern Blvd) and Target (21800 Towne Center Drive). Please note, parking will not be permitted in Thompson Park.
