Te Awamutu Space Centre is a museum and activity centre suitable for all ages. We love sharing our passion for space and astronomy but we're not just for space geeks! Most of our visitors arrive with no real interest in space but end up finding it more interesting and fun than they expected.
Adults (18+): $12.00
Children (3–17): $8.00
Infants (0–2): Free
Our exhibits and activities include:
- Information displays about space and astronomy.
- A collection of space-related artifacts and memorabilia.
- Interactive displays, games, toys, puzzles, etc.
- Virtual Reality.
- Telescopes, including a daytime solar telescope.
Opening Hours
We open by appointment, so our opening hours depend on which bookings we have. To see which times are currently available, see the calendar and booking form.
Please DO NOT come to the centre without a booking and assume that you'll be able to come in. The only way to guarantee a visit is to book a time.
Update on school visits
We are taking school visits again! However, we've had to make some changes so please make sure you understand what's happening before you book.
