Planetarium After Dark: Festive Skies

The festive season looms as the nights draw in and we get closer to the winter solstice. Join us in the planetarium to learn about the season’s skies – both past and present. Discover why we have seasons and why we see different constellations at different times of the year, and join us as we explore one of the greatest astronomical mysteries: the Star of Bethlehem.

All ticket sales are final. Please use our Directions page for information on parking and getting to the planetarium.

Designed for adult and older teen audiences. Due to mature themes and presentation style, this show is not recommended for children. It is recommended for adults and older teens because it may explore more complex scientific concepts and philosophical topics that younger children may find difficult to follow or less engaging. (It does not contain explicit language or graphic content.) If you are interested in a show designed for a younger audience, please consider our Introductory Astronomy for Kids options (typically on the first Wednesday or the third Saturday of each month) or general shows.

Visitor note: Advance online ticket purchase is recommended. Late arrivals are not admitted.
