<p>BURROWBRIDGE, ENGLAND - OCTOBER 05: The full Harvest moon rises over the ruins of St Michael's Church, a scheduled monument on the top of Burrow Mump on October 5, 2017 in Somerset, England. Normally the Harvest moon, the name given to the first full moon rising closest to the autumnal equinox, usually occurs before the equinox in September. However this year, the Harvest moon, which is said to symbolised when farmers would need to start gathering in the food to prepare for the lean winter months, is happening in October.

MILWAUKEE — Villa Terrace Museum & Gardens in Milwaukee will host a full moon viewing party on its terra cotta terrace from 6 to 10 p.m. Monday.

The Villa Luna event is extra special since the October full moon is a Harvest Moon and will also be the first supermoon in 2025. Since the moon will be at or near its closest point to Earth, it will appear bigger and brighter than usual.

As part of Villa Luna, a large telescope will be set up and local astronomer, Bob Bonadurer, will be on hand to guide guests to discover celestial wonders.

Fizzy drinks and small bites will be available.
