Dome Club Planetarium returns to Aerospace Bristol this August


Dome Club Planetarium is returning to Aerospace Bristol this summer, bringing back a trio of immersive 360° dome experiences for families this August. In collaboration with Yuup, the lineup includes the hugely popular Cockpit Command: 360° Family Flight Experience, alongside the Family Planetarium Show, and AstroTots Planetarium, offering something for every age group from babies through to grown-up space enthusiasts. 


The return follows a hugely successful Easter run for Dome Club Planetarium, which was met with a fantastic response from visiting families. One visitor described their visit: 


"Absolutely amazing! We attended the Cockpit Command: 360° Family Flight Experience with Dome Club Planetarium. The flight sim was thrilling and immersive, and the planetarium was magical for all ages. So well organised, friendly hosts, and truly unforgettable. The whole family loved it – highly recommend! Will definitely return."

 

The three experiences 


Cockpit Command: 360 Family Flight Experience: takes visitors inside a wraparound digital dome to experience flight through a pilot's eyes, combining real cockpit footage, dynamic visuals and live presenter-led storytelling. 


Family Planetarium Show with Astronomy Q&A: a guided tour of the night sky where families can ask as many questions as they like. Visitors travel to the International Space Station, journey across the Solar System, and get to handle a real meteorite from outer space. 


AstroTots Planetarium: Stars, Shapes & Colours: designed especially for babies, toddlers and younger children. The 25-minute show fills the dome with twinkling stars, the Milky Way and colourful constellations, before taking little ones on a journey around the Moon, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.
