It works anywhere on Earth. Ratings account for the moon, how high each meteor shower's radiant climbs from your latitude, and whether the sky actually gets dark there that night, which is why a far-northern summer never scores five stars, no matter how good the shower is.

Meteor showers are empirical and recur on fixed dates; eclipse and planet dates are curated. Planet dates are month-accurate, not to the minute. Eclipse visibility is resolved by region, so a match means “visible from parts of your region”; for a solar eclipse, whose path is only a few hundred km wide, check local timing before you travel.
