Vermont Public2024 Total Solar Eclipse - Vermont Public Livestream

Northern Vermont will be in the final path of totality for a total solar eclipse on Monday, April 8, 2024. This means the moon will appear to completely cover the sun, and people in those areas will experience up to three-and-a-half minutes of complete or partial darkness between 3:20 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. This is the only total solar eclipse to travel across Mexico, the United States, and Canada during the 21st century.

Vermont Public will have extensive coverage and resources to learn, connect and experience this once-in-a-lifetime event. Here's how Vermonters — and visitors to Vermont — can prepare for the best eclipse viewing.

Join Vermont Public and the Fairbanks Museum for extensive coverage of this once-in-a-lifetime event, including live coverage from But Why host and executive producer Jane Lindholm and astronomy expert Mark Breen from the Fairbanks Museum and Planetarium.

When is the 2024 eclipse?
The total solar eclipse will take place on Monday, April 8, 2024. In most parts of Vermont, it will begin around 3:20 p.m.
