Planning a visit to the Sudekum Planetarium? Get ready for an awesome experience in sight and sound!
- Sudekum Planetarium is not always open on Mondays. Please check our schedule for details.
- Daytime planetarium shows require member or paid admission to the Science Center and purchase of a separate ticket for a planetarium show. See the chart below for details.
- Visit the Planetarium without paying general admission to the Science Center by coming to Second Saturday evening programs. Second Saturday tickets and other evening programs may be purchased at the door or online in advance. See our show schedule for more information
- Assistive listening devices are available for use in the Planetarium. Just ask the ticket taker or your presenter before the show begins.
- Strollers are not allowed in the Planetarium. Park your stroller at the entrance of the Planetarium, and your stroller will meet you at the exit upstairs after the show.
- Taking pictures or video during any planetarium program is not permitted.
- If younger visitors become restless or need a little extra space, parents are welcome to stand in the back with them.
- If you or someone in your party has difficulty going up stairs and you will be attending a planetarium show, please tell the front desk so they can relay that information to planetarium staff. This will allow us to guide you to the best possible seat.
- Be courteous of others and please silence and stow your cell phone, camera, and other devices, digital or not, that may make sound or light. These lights and sounds can be very disruptive during the program. Even the blinking lights on cellphone earpieces or childrens' shoes can be a problem during some shows.
