Season of Light (show + exhibits ticket)

"Season of Light" is a beloved planetarium show that celebrates the stories behind the coldest and darkest time of year. The show highlights the origins of holiday customs that light up the season, from Yule logs and Christmas tree lights to luminarias and the Hanukkah Menorah. It also weaves in global winter solstice traditions, including Celtic, Nordic, and Hopi stories, along with astronomical occurrences and legends of figures like St. Nicholas and Santa Claus. After the feature, enjoy a short live star talk led by our planetarium operator.

Planetarium show tickets include access to all science center exhibits.

Runtime: Approx. 45 minutes
