Ted’s Space Adventure is the Royal Observatory’s planetarium show aimed at younger audiences (3-7 year olds).
We’ll explore the Solar System with a bear named Ted (and companion Plant!), learning about the things we find there and how they affect us.
Ted’s Space Adventure is presented by an astronomer from the Royal Observatory Greenwich. With interactivity, music and rhyme, the show is a must for preschool children!

Show times
Ted's Space Adventure runs at 11:30am on weekends and during school holidays.

Plan your visit
Can I visit with my child?
Yes! This show is recommended for ages 3 - 7. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
How long do planetarium shows 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?
You do not need a Royal Observatory ticket to visit the Planetarium. However, if you would also like to visit the historic observatory then you can book a separate ticket here.
What provisions are in place to support those with additional needs?
