Join us for Meet the Neighbours, a live planetarium show presented by an astronomer from the Royal Observatory Greenwich.
The Universe is a vast and intriguing place, and this show explores our own little corner of it: the Solar System. Starting from our home planet, the Earth, we’ll travel through our celestial neighbourhood, visiting planets, moons, asteroids and more.
This immersive show is packed full of spectacular sights and fun facts - perfect for space lovers young and old!
Recommended ages 7+. Under-5s will not be admitted – Ted's Space Adventure is suitable for younger children.

Plan your visit

Yes! This show is suitable for ages 7+. Children under 5 will not be admitted. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
How long will the show last?
Planetarium shows last up to 30 minutes.
When should I arrive?
The planetarium is part of the Royal Observatory, at the top of a hill with spectacular views across London. Please allow enough time to get to us and aim to arrive at least 15 minutes before the show’s start time, as latecomers cannot be admitted.
Can I bring a pushchair?
Pushchairs are not allowed into the planetarium itself but there is a designated buggy park in the foyer.
Can I visit the Observatory too?
Entry to the Royal Observatory is not included with Planetarium show tickets. However, the Observatory is a fantastic place to explore the history of time and space, and well worth a visit before or after your show. If you'd like to book entry tickets in advance, click here.
