I'm not sure youre able to do that since the show is part of the whole museum and is booked on time slots after you have booked a ticket for entering the museum.
Can I just confirm that children and adults are the same price? It feels a bit steep for a 3 year old!
A:
If you purchase your ticket more than 3 days before you are due to visit the tickets are £9 excluding gift aid. Unfortunately only 0-2 fit into the other price bracket.
We’re going to book general admission tickets in advance online. Can we purchase tickets for the planetarium on the day (subject to availability) if we decide we’d like to see a show?
A:
Yes you can. The ticket advisor asked if we wanted to go in there when we bought our tickets. I hope you enjoy it. We really enjoyed the film.
Depends on the two year old really. If they like pressing buttons and stuff there might be enough to keep them amused but it really is more suitable for nursery / early years and up.
