Astronomy on Tap is a series of worldwide events in which professional astronomers give informal talks at a local bar on topics of a broad interest in astronomy and astrophysics. This event will consist of two 15-20 min talks, followed by questions and comments. Speakers will mingle with the audience between the talks, and there will also be trivia sessions with questions related to astronomy. At the end of the night, prizes will be handed to the winners!

Admission is free and all ages are welcome! UCBC has beer ($1 dollar discount during this event for selected beers), soft drinks, and food for purchase. There is a parking lot on the East side of Urban Chestnut and street parking available too.
