Planetarium Experience

The EsploraPlanetarium is your gateway to the stars! With a 10.7 metre diameter, the EsploraPlanetarium is a colourspace 4K theatre hosting entertainment and educational shows related to the planets, the Solar System as well as the whole Universe.

Interested?! Check our week schedule for a list of films and shows that are being screened at the moment. Tickets can be bought at the Esplora reception and includes a film/live show in our dome and a visit to the Universe Exhibition. Once on location, you kindly need to make your own way to the Planetarium Building located here. Around the centre you will find numerous signs that will help you arrive to the exact location. Kindly also note that doors will open 20 minutes before the start of the show and will be closed exactly when the show is scheduled to start, so make sure that you are there early.

The dome is soundproof and equipped with the latest projection technology and the theatre has 52 reclining seats. Inside the Planetarium building, visitors can also enjoy the Universe Exhibition, consisting of 13 interactive exhibits related to the cosmos and Life in Space.

It is a stellar experience you will never forget!

Hearing Loop System

The Planetarium is now equipped with a hearing loop system for the benefit of people making use of hearing aid devices. This will enable hearing aid users to have a better experience inside the Planetarium dome since the signal would be directly picked up by the hearing aid device. Users would need to switch their hearing aid devices to Telecoil mode and this would enable them to benefit from this system. The Hearing Assistance System is accessible from row 2 to 5.
