Perseids Meteor Shower 2026: Stargazing at Amiantos

The AstroVerce Astronomy Club Cyprus, in collaboration with the Cyprus Planetarium, invites you to a unique night dedicated to the spectacular Perseids Meteor Shower 2026 at Amiantos Astropark in Limassol, Cyprus. The Perseids are one of the most impressive meteor showers of the year, with dozens of shooting stars crossing the sky every hour, creating a breathtaking spectacle under the Cypriot summer sky.

Five telescopes will be available on-site for observing the night sky. Bring your cameras — club members will be on hand to guide you in both astrophotography and observation. The peak of the Perseids will occur on the night of Wednesday, August 12, continuing into the early morning hours of Thursday, August 13.

What to bring: cameras, telescopes or astronomy equipment, tripods and accessories, warm clothing, and good vibes.

Important guidelines: No white light (flash) allowed and no fire-related activities (no open fires, charcoal, etc.). Please respect the environment and take your trash with you. The event is held with the permission and support of the Department of Forests.
