February 2024 saw a successful Dark Sky Event with all outdoor lights switched off in the town of Hereford, UK. The lights around the castle were dimmed, allowing visitors to enjoy a guided tour of the night sky led by Bayfordbury Observatory from the University of Hertfordshire.
Stoane Lighting was pleased to be able to assist the event by providing night sky friendly equipment that enabled participants to navigate the venue safely with minimal lighting, all of it downward facing and having negligible impact on the evening landscape and visitor’s enjoyment of the night sky.
The event was successfully repeated again in 2025. Read more here: ILP Lighting Journal May 2024
