Planetarium Shows

We went on a Sunday afternoon, I must say it is one of the best experiences I had. Daily they have different shows and we got a chance to see "Destination Mars", they had live presentation and the equipment there are just amazing (they have device which can project 10 millions stars in 4K) which is just amazing; I would say it is such a must visit and after the show the collection of space related artifacts are a much watch.

Sharjah Planetarium is out of this world! 🚀 The shows are informative, engaging, and visually stunning. The staff are knowledgeable and enthusiastic, making the experience even more enjoyable.

The planetarium's facilities are modern and well-maintained, and the exhibits are fascinating. A must-visit for anyone interested in space and astronomy! 👍

Just wish they allowed us to watch more than one show on the same ticket, since it was pretty empty - would've loved to explore more! 😊

We had a visit to the Sharjah Space and Astronomy Centre today! It was a good educational experience for both adults and kids. The facility is beautifully designed, modern, and well-maintained and clean.

The staffs were friendly, always ready to answer questions and guide us through the exhibits. One of the highlights was the planetarium show — an immersive experience that took us on a journey through the solar system and beyond. It truly felt like we were floating through space!

Lot of parking spaces!!💪😀

Whether you’re a space enthusiast or just looking for a unique experience in the UAE, this is a must-see!

Nice people and nice place. There were many interactive objects with explanations to understand how some topics work. the Professor and the research assistant who performed the show in the planetarium, were really nice people and also answered the questions. It’s really worth a visit.

I visit this astronomy center multiple times, and there was a significant development at the planetarium. We enjoyed the entire Mars movie, and the laser show was amazing. All the details in this place touched my heart because I love astronomy and space. I gain a lot of knowledge every time I visit this place.

*Just check their website and all the notes they put to choose what suitable for you.

it's worth a visit.

Wow, an amazing place for kids. Apart from the planetarium show there are so many interactive science exhibits for kids as well. This place looks small inside but will definitely take a lot of time to explore all the science exhibits. The planetarium show is fr 1 hr and kids below 2 aren't allowed. AED 22 for adults and AED 11 for kids. Lots of parking available.

Wonderful, must visit place.. my kids thoroughly enjoyed especially the interactive stuff.

Trying to call the number above but unfortunately no one pick up the line, several times trying to contact them but no responses, the timing for the visits and showtimes are not available,,, very sad to avoid contacting clients this way 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 I think it’s better to try Twitter for more response

The museum itself is great, so much to see and do BUT please call in advancebefore going. Timings are incorrect. There is even a stand outside the gate that says open at 8am but it does not anymore.
We were turned away and told they now open at 12.30pm!!!

Very beautiful place design by architecture if you go inside you can see the every single star in the universe and too much knowledge about stars this is very big library I am seen.

A great place for kids who has an interest in astronomy. Though my daughter is too young to understand she enjoyed running around exploring the various games and space stations. This place is beautifully setup. Do try to visit them on Saturdays as they have shows at 5 and 7 or so and in weekdays they close early. 

Great place in Sharjah. The planetarium shows are superb.

Maa shaa allah. Very informative. Must visit with children. Subhanallah. Very nice.

this place is really soectacular for spacebuffs....the kids loved the show and also the gadgets related to space were creatively made so the kids had fun at the same time....

amazing place and great location. very informative and an interactive way of learning for the kids. best time to visit would be December to march to witness also hundreds of migrating birds that flocks in the vast greens of the place.

This is a must visit place in sharjah. Their planatarium shows are really good and informative. Kids under 4 is not allowed inside the planatarium. Adults ticket is dhs 20 and kids is dhs10. Show is at 1. 00 pm sunday to thursday. Itz always better to call them and confirm the timing before going.

Very informative and their shows are worth watching. Kids Will enjoy this place.

Amazing experience. Must visit with kids. Virtual show will take you to Galaxy and beyond that. Very informative.

Lovely place to spend some time with children. The kids can have fun learning about space and get a chance on hands-on learning as well. The shows are an hour long. There are multiple shows so make sure to call ahead to know which show is being shown. 

It is a must to visit place in UAE for those who are fascinated about the Solar system / Universe and even for those who want to learn about the stars and our universe .  We visited on Saturday and were lucky to attend two shows. Both the shows were well presented and very much interesting and clear to understand.

In exhibition area, there are many space science related experiments are available where we can get the answers of  many “Why”, “How”, “what” questions.

Overall it was amazing experience..!!
