Tips & Advice

  • Book your tickets well in advance, as places for this immersive experience are limited and tend to sell out quickly.
  • Arrive a little early to explore the planetarium exhibits before your mission begins, making the most of your visit.
  • Consider booking a relaxed session if you or someone in your party prefers a quieter, less stimulating environment.
  • Dress in comfortable layers, as the planetarium's indoor environment can vary in temperature, and you'll be moving between different areas.
  • Have your camera ready for the printed family photograph, but also be prepared to capture candid moments throughout the immersive experience.
