Thank you to all of our Culture Night 2023 attendees! We will be back for Culture Night again next year!
The eighteenth edition of Culture Night took place on Friday 22 September 2023.
Join us for a night among the stars and expand your mind with cosmic insights from the astronomers of DIAS Dunsink Observatory! Dunsink is Ireland’s oldest astronomical observatory and was once the home of one of Ireland’s greatest mathematicians, Sir William Rowan Hamilton. Nowadays, DIAS astrophysicists study explosions on the Sun, search for new stars and planets, and search the universe for exotic astronomical objects.
The programme includes a self-guided tour of the 18th century observatory and the Victorian engineering of the South Telescope built by Grubb of Dublin.
Advanced booking is required at culturenightdunsink.eventbrite.ie. There are three entry times available for one-hour tours at 17:30, 19:00, and 20:30.
Bígí linn le haghaidh oíche i measc na réaltaí agus leathnaigh d’intinn le léargais chosmach ó na réalteolaithe i Réadlann DIAS Dunsink! Is é Dunsink an réadlann réalteolaíoch is sine in Éirinn agus bhí sé tráth ina theach ag ceann amhain de na matamaiticeoirí is fearr in Éirinn, an Ridire William Rowan Hamilton. Sa lá atá inniu ann, déanann réaltfhisiceoirí DIAS staidéar ar phléascanna ar an nGrian, déanann siad cuardach do réaltaí agus pláinéid nua, agus cuardaigh na cruinne le haghaidh réada réalteolaíochta coimhthíocha.
Áiríonn an clár turas féintreoraithe ar an réadlann san 18ú haois agus ar innealtóireacht Victeoiriach de Teileascóp Theas a thóg Grubb as Baile Átha Cliath.
Tickets for our Race to Space Escape Room are now available! Book here.
