Your star will be located in the northern hemisphere, so it will be visible from the UK (at certain times of the year). If you choose our standard Name a Star Gift package, then unfortunately we cannot guarantee that you will be able to see your star with the naked eye, and you may require a telescope to do so, (unless you purchase the Bright, or Extra bright upgrade options) We would always recommend upgrading the brightness of your star selection, to aid in the visibility from areas with background light pollution (major towns and cities). Ordering our Extra Bright Stars would guarantee viability from the UK with the naked eye.
