Buy your tickets at the museum. We made the mistake of going to the planetarium first. My family saw the Big Bird’s Adventure children’s show. It was cute. This was my 5 and 8 year olds first time to the planetarium and they were nervous. So we chose the show that appealed to the youngest kids, but I think they were a little bored by the end. The show was the right length of time for that age group though, 30 minutes. The seats were comfortable, the best place to sit is towards the middle back. There was a set up for a wedding when we came in, but we just had to walk past a few tables to get into the showing room. When we were finished, there was a few interactive displays that the kids could play with and learn about the world. We will be back another Sunday to try a different show!

Don't forget. You need to walk to the Museum to get tickets for the planetarium. Then walk back to the planetarium building.

Is there another planetarium (somewhat) nearby that plays laser music shows? The NEAG has been running the same shows for over *twenty* years. A quick look on Google and you'll see that there are so many more laser music shows available, for example: Quee
