Epilepsy: The tour contains high contrast and fast moving images. If you suffer from epilepsy, please contact us to confirm that the program is suitable for you.

Claustrophobia: the planetarium is a 5m inflatable bubble with a height of 3 meters. From the outside the bubble may look small but is actually quite spacious. If you suffer from claustrophobia, please inform our friendly staff and they will allow you to take a sneak peek into the planetarium. If you decide to stay outside, we will guide to the Cinema room where you can wait comfortably for the next section.

Sitting down: our comfortable padded recliner seats are located on the floor for a more immersive experience. If you are not able to sit on the floor, we will provide a chair for you to sit in the planetarium. People with strollers can bring their stroller inside too.
