Loved it. We were at the Sky Theatre at Ocean Paradise today, amazing. The children are 11 years old and 6 years old.

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

This planetarium appears to have significant technical issues that severely impact the viewing experience. Based on reviewer feedback, families would likely have better experiences at other planetariums like Vanderbilt. Consider visiting only if major equipment upgrades have been completed.
