Joshua Tree National Park is one of the best places in the US to go stargazing. Every October, the park hosts a festival celebrating its dark skies. Tickets for the event go on sale today, but you’ll have to move fast to score a pass. This is one of the hottest stargazing festivals in the country.
This year will mark the ninth Night Sky Festival, which will be held from Friday, October 4, to Saturday, October 5. The two-day event, in partnership with Joshua Tree National Park, Sky’s The Limit Observatory and Nature Center, and other local organizations, celebrates the park’s stunning dark skies.
