The attraction everyone queues for
From summer festivals to Science Week, our planetariums draw the crowds. Shows run back to back all day, indoors or out, and every visitor leaves with stars in their eyes.
Big crowds, big wonder
Our planetariums have become a favourite at festivals and fun days. Look for the big blue sky dancers! We run short live shows back to back, so the queue keeps moving and everyone gets their turn under the stars.

For every age
Toddlers, teens, parents and grandparents, all under the same sky.
All STEM subjects covered
Space is the doorway to every STEM subject. Our live, interactive shows weave science, technology, engineering and maths together, pitched to the age of the group in front of us.
Science
Physics, chemistry, biology & Earth science- Our Solar System: Explore the Sun, planets, moons and asteroids.
- Stars and Galaxies: Discover how stars form and what makes up a galaxy.
- Gravity and Orbits: Learn what keeps planets moving around the Sun.
- Earth and the Night Sky: Understand day and night, seasons and eclipses.
Technology
The tools that let us explore- Telescopes: Discover how powerful instruments reveal distant stars, planets and galaxies.
- Satellites: Explore how satellites observe Earth and help us study space.
- Space Probes and Rovers: Learn how robotic explorers investigate other planets.
- Space Imaging: See how cameras and sensors capture the universe beyond human sight.
Engineering
Designing things that work in space- Rocket Design: Discover how engineers build rockets to launch spacecraft into space.
- Spacecraft and Satellites: Explore how vehicles are designed to operate in the harsh conditions of space.
- Planetary Rovers: Learn how engineers build robots to travel across and investigate other worlds.
- Space Telescopes: See how precision engineering creates instruments that study distant stars and galaxies.
Maths
Numbers, patterns and shapes in the sky- Distances in Space: Explore how we measure the vast distances between planets and stars.
- Orbits and Patterns: Discover how maths helps us understand and predict the movements of planets and moons.
- Size and Scale: Compare the sizes of Earth, the Sun and other objects in our universe.
- Time and Cycles: Investigate how days, years and lunar phases relate to movements in space.

Festivals we’ve lit up
Can the planetarium go outdoors?
Yes. We need a level grassy area, and we bring ground sheets and barriers. We'll talk through the site with you before the day.
How many people can see a show?
We run short shows back to back all day so the queue keeps moving. Tell us your expected numbers and we'll plan around them.
What do you need on site?
Access to power and the space for the planetarium and a small queue area. We bring everything else.
