Southend's Planetarium is the only planetarium facility in the south-east, outside of London. It presents a range of talks about astonomy and the night sky, and all our talks are given live so there's plenty of opportunity to ask any questions! Pease call to check times, prices and availability before you travel.
Please note that most shows are suitable for those aged 7 and over. Under 5s are not admitted to the Planetarium.
We recommend contacting us to confirm seat availability and current programme.
SEND friendly shows:
These shows have a smaller capacity than usual, and are quieter and more relaxed. SEND shows run in the Planetarium and the Lecture Theatre and there is also an accessible standard show in the Lecture Theatre. These run on a three monthly rotation on the last Sunday of the month at 11.30am.
Please see the website for further details including access information.
