On 7 August, WSB University invites all enthusiasts of science, great fun, and… a star-studded sky to a special event that has become a permanent fixture in the summer calendar of Dąbrowa Górnicza.
This year’s 12th Night of Shooting Stars will be held under the motto:

The Main Beach of Pogoria III will transform into a space full of family attractions, scientific curiosities, animation activities, and shared night-sky observations. It is a perfect opportunity to spend time with family and friends, combine learning with entertainment, and – of course – make a wish upon a shooting star!
