On Friday nights the Melbourne Planetarium reawakens after hours for adults only with a stellar line-up of fulldome film screenings.
Visit other planets, dive into black holes and marvel at the cosmos in the latest Melbourne Planetarium showcase of films on the dome.
There are two screenings a night. The 7:30pm session focuses on astronomy and also features What’s in the Sky Tonight (WITST), a presenter-led tour through the night sky. The 9:00pm session features a full dome art film offering an immersive voyage into unseen worlds. So, whether you are into science or art, or both, Planetarium Nights has got you covered.
Enjoy a drink from the bar in planetary surroundings. Planetarium Nights is for adults 18 years and over - Program changes monthly.
