Approximately 30 of us went to the Planetarium for an office team building day and it was just wonderful. Everybody thoroughly enjoyed the presentation and it was clear how passionate the volunteers were. A huge thank you to John and the other volunteers! We shall definitely return!

I visited the planetarium with my 6 year old son in order to learn about our solar system. The building is clearly showing its age and the facilities are from the 1980s.The staff were professional and knowledgeable.However the show was outdated and the technology old. Closer to a PowerPoint presentation. I love watching documentaries about the cosmos. I would avoid until the premises receive some funding or upgrade their projector. A disappointing experience.

Very educational place to visit. The dome is really impressive to sea the stars and Mars landing, etc. But it does have a lot of ppt slides in the show.

An amazing place to visit. I visit a couple of times a year and today took my granddaughter for a Christmas event. We were looked after so well and thanks especially to the lovely helper who let my granddaughter borrow her scarf because she was cold. We really enjoyed our visit. Thank you so much.

Have been twice now and I can’t fault this place…! Both shows were GREAT, and you can just tell that all the staff there is genuinely passionated and happy to be there! Would recommend 100%. (Small tip: arrive early to avoid the seats on the edges that don’t recline)

Amazing display off space and commentary. So much information. We saw the seven wonders off space. A fair price for entry.Only comment is parking it needs more signs up to give directions. People doing the parking were doing there best but from main carpark its a road to building you would think not to drive down
