I’m a Childcare Director and I had my school go here for a field trip recently. It was a terrible experience and my teachers refuse to go there again. The kids asked if they would have to go next year. The person leading this activity with the planetarium was awful. She was rude, sarcastic and belittling. We signed up to do the LEGO activity. I can’t believe what he told our kids who were as young as pre-K. She told them that if they couldn’t build the Legos back the way they were when they got them she would be very very mad at them. She continued to tell them this repeatedly. It breaks my heart that our kids were so intimidated. This was our most expensive Field trip of the year and it was a total waste. We will never go back!

My family and I recently visited...we loved it. The show was perfect, age appropriate, and the gift shop was open and full of really cool stuff for all ages. All in all, I will for sure be returning to the Drake Planetarium.

Excellent experience! The planetarium public show that I saw, Totality was fantastic. The staff was friendly and very knowledgeable/informative. Highly recommend!

Excellent experience.

We had a blast here
