Keweenaw Mountain Lodge Hosts Third Annual Dark Sky Festival

The Upper Peninsula Dark Sky Festival is returning to the Keweenaw Mountain Lodge for its third year. Held during DarkSky International’s International Dark Sky Week, the event will welcome visitors of all ages to learn about the impact of light pollution, astronomy, night sky photography and more through a series of workshops.

“We are excited to host the third annual Upper Peninsula Dark Sky Festival at the Keweenaw Mountain Lodge,” said John Mueller, Keweenaw Mountain Lodge owner. “As the headquarters for the Keweenaw Dark Sky Park, having people enjoy an educational event to learn more about topics related to dark skies continues to fit everything we do at the resort and the dark sky park. This event coincides with DarkSky International’s Dark Sky Week and continues to improve on what everyone in the world is doing to enjoy and foster the dark skies and get closer to nature. The Lodge is about getting people closer to nature.”

The festival will be held April 24 – 26, 2025 at the Keweenaw Mountain Lodge. To learn more, visit wmta.org.
