Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
Planetarium Showing until July/8 at 6:00 PM
Show Description: 50 Years in a Heartbeat Pink Floyd’s iconic album ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’, initially released in March 1973, turns 50, and what more fitting a place to celebrate it and experience it than in a Planetarium, through the music set to visuals. With the help of modern technology, the band has embraced the idea of a show combining breathtaking views of the solar system and beyond, played out to 42 minutes of The Dark Side Of The Moon in surround sound. NSC Creative has led the visual production efforts, working closely with Pink Floyd’s long-time creative collaborator, Aubrey Powell from Hipgnosis. Each song has a different theme; some futuristically looking forward and some a retro acknowledgment to Pink Floyd’s visual history, all relating to a time and space experience, embracing up-to-the-minute technology only a Planetarium can offer. A truly immersive and all-encompassing surround sound and visual treat that will transcend reality and take you way beyond the realms of a 2D experience.

Please note before purchasing your planetarium tickets:
Planetarium tickets are an add-on to general admission tickets and won’t be accepted without proof of general admission tickets.
Planetarium show ticket sales stop 10 minutes before our shows are scheduled to begin. This ensures everyone gets to the planetarium theater in time for the show to begin.
If you pre-purchase tickets to a show, you must still check in at the front desk when you arrive to receive your admittance sticker.
Planetarium ticket holders are expected to be present outside the theater doors 5-10 minutes before each show. We need to create a very dark environment for you to see the stars, so once the audience is seated, the show begins, and no late seating is allowed.
Early departure is permitted, but re-entry is not. The Discovery Center is not responsible for refunding tickets due to late arrivals or early departures.
Planetarium shows run approximately 25-45 minutes.
The planetarium show schedule is subject to change without notice.
