Audio Universe: Tour of the Solar System is a planetarium show, but unlike traditional shows it's the soundtrack that takes the lead role.
All of the objects in space are represented with rich sounds as well as with incredible visuals. The audience can listen to the stars appear and hear the planets orbit around their heads.

Audio Universe: Tour of the Solar System is an immersive experience that can be enjoyed irrespective of level of vision- but is highly reccomended as an accessible option for visitors are blind or have low vision.

- A guided planetarium session exploring the night sky, led by a presenter
- Reduced volume levels
- Soft ambient lighting, with planetarium doors remaining open throughout the show
- A breakout space

Spaces are also strictly limited to 20 visitors per session.
Adults $10, Children/Students/Seniors $8. Carers go free when attending with a visitor with a disability. All ages welcome.
