Take a journey to a distant world in our 360° planetarium, whether that’s on the other side of our solar system or down in the depths of the ocean.
Depending on the show, it may be led by one of our presenters, or an immersive film to lose yourself in.
Please note that due to the snug size of the planetarium, we are only able to accommodate 1 guest in a wheelchair per show.
