Perseids Meteor Shower
August 10, 2024 @ 8:00 pm – 11:59 pm
It’s that time of year again… The Perseids Meteor Shower is headed our way! Reserve your parking spot to join us for a family-friendly meteor shower viewing event at Rancho Cañada del Oro Open Space Preserve!
The Perseid Meteor Shower is one of the best meteor showers that can be seen from the Santa Clara Valley, with the potential to see up to 90 meteors an hour with 10-15 large and dramatic ones. These meteors emerge from the constellation Perseus and streak across the sky in stunning displays. Bring your favorite picnic supplies and enjoy the meteor shower with us!
Tickets are for your parking space. You may bring as many people as you can safely fit within your vehicle (Please – NO buses or RVs). Bring water to drink, snacks, a blanket, beach or camp chairs to sit in, a flashlight, and warm clothing for the late hours of the evening.
