Why families love it
Following a massive R90 million refurbishment in partnership with Anglo American, the historic 1960 Johannesburg Planetarium reopened as a cutting-edge visualization laboratory. It features 10 state-of-the-art 4K digital projectors that surround audiences in a seamless, multi-sensory 360-degree environment. Public audiences can enjoy highly acclaimed fulldome cinematic features (like Worlds Beyond Earth narrated by Lupita Nyong'o) alongside traditional live astronomy shows like The Sky Tonight, where expert presenters navigate the evening's exact star constellations in real-time.
