the visitor center in Bryce Canyon National Park will host educational and interactive exhibits from the James Webb Space Telescope team and University of Utah that the public can enjoy for free between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. The festival will also include nightly lectures from leading academics in astronomy, as well as park staff and planetarium educators who will share their expertise and research delving into the origin of stars and the universe itself.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Festivities ramp up at night, when the sky starts to light up above the arches and hoodoos in Bryce Canyon National Park. At 10 p.m., the festival transitions outside, where the Salt Lake Astronomical Society will set up several state-of-the-art telescopes to capture views of the night\u2019s best sites. On Friday night, festival goers can also grab tickets to a moon-lit concert by Dark Sky String Quartet for some stellar music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The festival\u2019s evening programs, which are held from 8:30 to 9 p.m. each night, require reserving free tickets, which can be made at the visitor center any time during the days preceding the festival. If you\u2019re looking for other stargazing adventures after the festival, be sure to check out other popular stargazing points in Bryce Canyon Country, such as Kodachrome Basin State Park, Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument and Capitol Reef National Park, all of which offer remote and vast areas to take in the Milky Way\u2019s wonders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Click <a
