# Event Details - **Event Name**: Geminid Meteor Shower - December 2025 - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 12 Dec, 2025 at 06:00 pm – Mon, 15 Dec, 2025 at 06:00 am - **Event Description**: A celestial event is occurring over India's -- and Bangalore's -- skies. The majestic Geminid Meteor Shower. On December 12, 13, 14, 15, 2025. Meteor Showers are yearly-recurring events which garner interest and attention not only from astronomical enthusiasts but even common populace because they occur only few times a year. And here we are, a dedicated, experienced, astronomy entity who is inviting you to witness the spectacle with us. At our lovely dark sky rural campsites. --------------------------------- Meteors are casually called as 'shooting stars' due to their appearance. They are particles of stone and dust which hit the atmosphere when the Earth traverses through and comes in contact with the debris from a passed-by comet's tail. The Geminids originate, in fact surprisingly, not from a Comet, but from an Asteroid 3200 Phaethon, with a periodicity of every 1.4 Earth-years. Every year, during these dates (of December) a stream of particles from Asteroid Phaethon left-behind tail material is intercepted by the atmosphere, which results in magnificent 'celestial fireworks'. The streaks of meteors zip across from any part of the sky -- but tracing back their apparent paths they appear to originate from the constellation of Gemini, hence the name. Geminid meteors dash at 34 kilometers per second. They produce rates of about 50 meteors per hour. They are fast-moving meteors, at times produce bright fireballs, and occasionally leave behind smoke trails called meteor 'trains'. The advantage playing out this time is during December 12-15 2025, the absence of Moon-light, thereby rendering the night sky dark for the whole night, if the clouds do not intervene. A good viewing could be expected for this year! Photographers are recommended to bring their own DSLR cameras and tripods to capture pictures of the meteors -- especially in a dark night sky with the Milky Way band visible. Observers can even bringing along their own binoculars -- of any specification -- will aid in generally watching the beautiful night sky and its celestial splendours. --------------------------------- ADDITIONALLY... As we are an Astronomy Campsite -- not for viewing the meteor shower, which can only be viewed with the bare eyes, but alongside for observing various celestial objects through the night -- we possess with us an 8-inch Dobsonian, a 10-inch Go-To on Equatorial Mount, a 25x100 big Binocular, for observing and imaging. They offer excellent magnified views of the night sky in a broad range of magnifications -- widest being the big binocular to the narrowest being the telescopes. We witness this feast-to-the-eyes sight from the silent serene empty rustic -- nocturnal --environment near the edge of a large forest of the Cauvery River belt. --------------------------------- COST INCLUSIONS: To-Fro Transport from B’lore Dinner, Breakfast, 3x Snacks Stay in Tents Rural Countryside Activities -- Hands-on Farming, Rural Walk, Hillock Hike, Forest Border Walk, Playing with Farm Animals, Interaction with Village Lifestyle Forest-Mountain Drive, Visit Big Lake inside Forest Visit Cauvery River (optional, 45 kms away) Bird Watching (by self) [spotting Peacocks] Small Astronomy Kit for Logging & Sketching 8" Dobonian Telescope + 10" Go-To Telescope + 25x100 Giant Binocular Astronomy Observatory Guided Tour COST EXCLUSIONS: Any Costs or Expenses not mentioned in Inclusions Any Emergencies --------------------------------- - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/hosur/geminid-meteor-shower-december-2025-tickets/80003141681858 - **Event Categories**: camping, fireworks, sports, music, art, fine-arts, photography, trips-adventures, entertainment, trekking - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 2 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 5900, max: 5900, currency: INR ## Event venue details - **city**: Hosur - **state**: TN - **country**: India - **location**: Mattiyur - **lat**: 12.2694975 - **long**: 77.61527989999999 - **full address**: Mattiyur, Kottaiyur, Tamil Nadu 635102, India, Hosur ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Event Photo 1 - **Image URL**: https://cdn2.allevents.in/thumbs/live_large68725d0ce40c9.jpg - **Alt text**: Event Photo 2 - **Image URL**: https://cdn2.allevents.in/thumbs/live_large68725d0914e36.jpg - **Alt text**: Event Photo 3 - **Image URL**: https://cdn2.allevents.in/thumbs/live_large68725d0109ea0.jpg - **Alt text**: Event Photo 4 - **Image URL**: https://cdn2.allevents.in/thumbs/live_large68725cfd3d5c0.jpg - **Alt text**: Event Photo 5 - **Image URL**: https://cdn2.allevents.in/thumbs/live_large68725cf7b0fae.jpg - **Alt text**: Event Photo 6 - **Image URL**: https://cdn2.allevents.in/thumbs/live_large68725cf3ba81a.jpg ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Geminid Meteor Shower - December 2025 being held? - **A:** Geminid Meteor Shower - December 2025 takes place on Fri, 12 Dec, 2025 at 06:00 pm to Mon, 15 Dec, 2025 at 06:00 am at Mattiyur, Kottaiyur, Tamil Nadu 635102, India, Hosur. - **Q**: Who is organizing Geminid Meteor Shower - December 2025? - **A:** Geminid Meteor Shower - December 2025 is organized by Urigam Nature Sky Camp. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Geminid Meteor Shower - December 2025", "image": "https://cdn2.allevents.in/thumbs/thumb68725cee46a3c.jpg", "startDate": "2025-12-12", "endDate": "2025-12-15", "url": "https://allevents.in/hosur/geminid-meteor-shower-december-2025-tickets/80003141681858", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Mattiyur", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Kottaiyur, Tamil Nadu 635102, India", "postalCode": "635102", "addressLocality": "Hosur", "addressRegion": "TN", "addressCountry": "IN" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "12.2694975", "longitude": "77.61527989999999" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "A celestial event is occurring over India's -- and Bangalore's -- skies.
