Wales Mobile Planetarium offers its services in all areas of Wales.

We deliver interactive planetarium science shows to Nursery, Reception, Primary, Secondary and SEN schools. Our range of mobile planetarium presenter-led shows cover individual school topic as well as the National Curriculum requirements.

Wonderdome also offers visits to scout and guide groups as well as museums and other interested organisations.

Over the past four years, our Wales Mobile Planetarium helped to teach about wonders of the universe, space travel, stars and mythology as well and enhance Maths and English learning in hundreds of schools. A mobile planetarium is a popular option for Welsh schools due to being located quite far from stationary space centres and planetariums.

If you are looking to book a place/science related trip Leicester Space Centre, Birmingham Think Tank Museum and The Life centre in Newcastle offer a superb day out with their wonderfully interactive displays and material collection. These places also provide stationary planetariums facilities.

Chesterfield observatory while not having a mobile planetarium offers guided tours of facilities. However, it is best visited in the evening times when stars can be observed through the telescope facilities on offer.
