Join us at the planetarium for a show especially geared toward younger audiences (8-15 years old) and their family members. Ever wondered where to find Perseus, the hero who defeated Medusa? Curious about locating your zodiac sign based on your birthday? This show will guide you through the captivating stories behind different constellations visible in the Hamilton night sky. You’ll learn how to recognize them and gain essential star-gazing skills, ensuring you’ll never feel lost when you look up at the night sky again! Additionally, we’ll explore some of the planets and celestial objects visible that night.

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