A Perfect Night for Special Occasions
The Starparty VIP is ideal for:
- Anniversaries and marriage proposals under the stars

- Special birthdays that deserve a unique celebration
- Valentine’s Day or other romantic occasions
- Any moment you want to turn into an eternal memory
The Program
First hour: Reception with champagne or cava under the open sky. Start of the session with an overview of that night’s sky, constellation identification and the most outstanding visible objects. Laser pointer use for a cinematic experience.
Second hour: Detailed observation with the large-aperture professional telescope. Depending on the time of year, we’ll explore planets with their moons and rings, planetary nebulae with hypnotic colors, globular clusters with thousands of stars, and galaxies millions of light-years away.
Final 30 minutes: Astrophotography session. We’ll capture images of that night’s sky for you to take home as eternal mementos. The guide will teach you basic techniques for photographing the starry sky with your own smartphone or camera.
Total Personalization
Unlike group tours, the Starparty VIP adapts completely to you. If you’re astronomy enthusiasts with prior knowledge, we’ll delve into technique and science. If it’s your first time, the guide will create a magical, accessible experience that will leave you awestruck.
You can let us know in advance if there’s something specific you’d like to see: a particular planet, the Milky Way, a specific nebula… We’ll do everything possible to fulfill your stellar wishes.
