SHOWS & EVENTS
FUNKY, FABULOUS, FUN FISKE FACTS
More than most planetariums in the world! But, who's counting?
In our regular rotation we have...18+ fulldome shows, 5 star shows, and at least a dozen liquid sky and laser fantasy music shows, tons of talks, special NASA events, eclipse events + more.
Most planetariums offer 4-5 shows on average.
10 million! Can you count them?
Yes, of course!
But, what happens at Fiske, stays at Fiske. However, we're just sayin'....

We've been sharing the skies and some pretty epic music shows since 1975!
Yes, we are! In fact, after going digital in 2013, we were the 1st 8K system in the Western Hemisphere.
Technically, we project 58 million pixels, but some are lost due to overlap. So, it's closer to 38,350,577 pixels.
Well, zzzzzzs! Oops, sorry!
Ah, yes, they're really comfortable. In fact, there are 3 different angles of the backrests, all designed for maximum viewing pleasure.
Yes AND we'll entertain you!
We're proud to offer live talks by expert presenters during all of our fulldome films and star talks. Plus, our highly trained, ace navigators fly in real time.
We're not just plug n' play. So, bring your questions!
Yes, we do!
We’re a leader in the planetarium community and have produced 20 films, both full length and shorts, which we distribute to other planetariums around the world for FREE.
750+ planetariums in 70 countries and 48 states, plus the Virgin Islands, have downloaded our films.
