The night sky is set to put on another breathtaking show as the Strawberry Moon 2026 rises later this month. Every June, skywatchers around the world look forward to this full Moon, not because it turns pink or red, but because of the fascinating history behind its name and the stunning sight it creates.
This year's Strawberry Moon is expected to appear unusually low in the sky, giving it a warm golden glow and making it seem much larger than normal as it rises above the horizon. While this is simply an optical illusion, it remains one of the most beautiful celestial events of the year.
