About
Join us for an evening filled with wonder, learning, and celestial beauty. Step back in time and celebrate one of the most significant days of the ancient calendar—the Winter Solstice. At Stonehenge Aotearoa. This event marks a moment of celestial and seasonal change.
As the sun begins its descent, our Storyteller will transport you to the past with Tales of the Winter Solstice. You'll be invited to step into the Circle of Stones, a modern-day observatory that echoes the mysteries of ancient megalithic sites. Here, you'll have the opportunity to witness a breathtaking moment: weather permitting, you'll see the sun set perfectly aligned with the Winter Solstice Heel Stone in the west.
