Planetarium – Eugenides Foundation
Through performances and interactive games, children (and adults) feel closer to the world of science – which many see as distant and unknown – and develop a greater comprehension of it.
There are digital shows for young children such as The Little Prince, and also for teenagers and adults such as Space Travel.
For the older children there is an Interactive Science and Technology Exhibition which aims to introduce them to new concepts (materials, audio and video communication, principles of biotechnology). Children are also given the chance to observe the applications of science and technology in everyday life, such as how animated movies are produced.
Families should know
- It is recommended that children 7 years + attend the Planetarium performances. However for the official Children’s Shows, younger visitors (5 years +) are also welcome
- Ticket exchange or refunds are not possible
- Visitors should be at the lobby of the Planetarium at least 30 minutes before the start of the show. Latecomers will not be admitted for safety reasons and in order to avoid disturbance of the other spectators
- It is important to note that regardless of the temperature outside, the atmosphere inside the Planetarium is cool (sometimes even cold)
