You have to select which show you want to go to when you buy your tickets for the museum that day. Show times are on the hour and/or half hour depending on the film they're running.
I've paid 27 bucks: general admission + theaters incl.
General admission without theater is 20$
But: it's for AMNH. The Hayden Planetary is included and free of charge.
It has showings during the museums open hours - which are 10 to 6 every day.
Admission prices are part of museum tickets, and depend on what other options you pick.
All these details are very easy to find on their website.
You buy a museum pass for the day and can include either one, or unlimited extra shows, which can include the Planetarium if you choose. You pick your show time then as well.
Prices are different for kids/adults/students. All the details are easily found on their website.
Does the pay as you wish option include the planetarium show?
General Admission to walk around the planetarium and the whole museum is pay as you wish. (Donation).
For adults to enter any of the current 3 special exhibits or Space shows its $28 if you choose one of them. Or $33 if you choose 2 or more.
You cannot buy only planetarium admission, but you can go there with a general admission ticket. Those tickets are "pay as you wish." So you do not have to buy an all access pass. If you want to see the film in the planetarium there is a set fee for that.
$22 for the Planetarium alone, plus whatever you choose as a donation for the Museum (it's cost is "pay as you wish") There is a discount if you are a AMNH member, that price is $13.50 for adults and $8.00 for children.
No minimum age. We have an 8 and 6yo and they loved it way more than J expected them to. There were infants and toddlers in the room with no issues, it seems they likely enjoyed the show as well.

Without the planatarium show it costs $18.00 for senior citizens. With the space show (or any one of the shows) it is $22.50
Do I have to buy the tickets online or can I buy when I arrive?

They want you to have an appointment but you can get them at the door.
We strongly recommend public transportation - it’s faster, easier, and better for the environment! However, Museum parking is available, at the 81st Street Entrance between Central Park West and Columbus Avenue. It's open from 8 am-11 pm.

Unfortunately the space show isnt playing at this time (Worlds beyond Earth). The museum is waiting on approval from the state to open theaters again. But the museum IS OPEN Wednesday-Sunday at the time of this post.
Is the planetarium open ?

I think so with taking precaution procedures like keeping a safe distance and wearing a mask and so on.
Yeah, right across the street, in the park, it's free, and you can sit any where you like. They recommend you bring a blanket to lie down on, and just look up into the night sky. You can bring food and drinks if you like, just clean up when you are done.
23$ adult
18$ student with i.d
18$ senior 60+
13$ kids 2-12 age

It depends on what kind of pass you want
Yesterday afternoon at about 4:45, I saw very long parallel trails in the sky going from horizon to horizon. Probably starting NNE. I was near Beacon NY on Highway I-84. Could that have been debris from Chinese space station?

Athena O. | Sep 29, 2018
I see these trails daily in ny. People dont look up. What happened to the chinese space station. Please share info if any. Thanks
Is there a way that I can ask a technical/scientific question online?

Emily CPY | Sep 29, 2018
It's part of museum admission, and the price depends on how many special exhibitions you select, or if you're an adult/child/student.
It's all very easy to find on their website - you can buy your ticket in advance.

What show is playing on Dec. 9 and are there tickets
Eileen Vanderheyden | Sep 29, 2018
Vinny | Sep 29, 2018
There is always current information on the website.
I heard that there's a separate entrance fee from the museum. Is it fixed or suggested?
Fernando Subirats | Sep 29, 2018
Vinny | Sep 29, 2018
The Planetarium is separate from the suggested donation for the main museum. It is fixed and usually stays about the same, but double check for the show you choose to see close to your visit.
What are some things you can do there?
Alyssa Carrero | Sep 29, 2018

There is a space travel type show narrated by Neil DeGrasse Tyson inside a hemispheric dome. There are interactive displays of nature and space. A natural exhibit on animals of the globe and their climates.
