The South Downs Planetarium and Science Centre is located to the south of the City of Chichester, by the campus of the High School. With its spacious auditorium, colourful displays and well-stocked sales kiosk, the Planetarium has something for would-be astronauts and stargazers aged 6 years and above.
There is free car parking adjacent to the Planetarium building, easy access for the disabled, and it is only a short walk from rail and bus stations. The Planetarium operates throughout the year but is not open every day and we regret that casual callers cannot be accommodated.
Just book and pay online with a credit or debit card. It is advisable to book tickets well in advance to avoid disappointment, as many shows sell out quickly.
