The third Going Dark took place during 2—4 October 2025. 2025 was the year that the weather was perfect. This meant that sky conditions were excellent and alongside our astronomy partners, we were able to see the real difference that sensitive dark sky lighting makes to enable us to see the night sky. Thanks to all our partners and participants for being part of our Living Lab.
Excerpt from “Stars, chats and light play: Going Dark 2025” by Julieta Cignacco (Denmark):
“There are moments in our professional lives when we step outside the familiar hum of emails, drawings and computer screens and remember why we fell in love with our craft in the first place. My time at the Going Dark workshop in the heart of Tuscany, nestled between the medieval castle town of Monteriggioni and the monastery village of Abbadia a Isola, was one of those rare, transformative experiences that reminded me what it truly means to work with light, landscape, and darkness.“
