Admission to the meeting is £7 (payable at the door) which includes refreshments throughout the day and a leisurely buffet lunch with time for socialising.
Northampton is a relatively central location, both north / south and east / west, and is well served by road and rail connections, with frequent trains from London and plenty of car parking. Location map.
Display material is welcome from Section members and both the BAA sales stand and the Webb Society will be present. Doors will open at 10am with tea and coffee available from 10.30 and the meeting proper starting at 11am.
The Annual Deep Sky Section meeting has a reputation for being an enjoyable, entertaining and relaxing day out and all BAA members and their guests are welcome to attend.
