Summary
May 31 at 11:00 a.m., Tarragona City Council will host a free family sun-observation event at Parc de la Ciutat’s Quinta de Sant Rafael to prepare residents for the Aug. 12, 2026 total solar eclipse.
Special instruments and adapted materials will let visitors view the Sun safely while learning how to observe the eclipse without risking eye damage.
The city says the activity is part of a broader public-outreach effort, with additional talks and sessions listed on Tarragona’s official agenda.
Aug. 12, 2026 will bring a total solar eclipse visible from Tarragona, when the Moon fully blocks the Sun and briefly casts the city into total shadow.
