You do not have to be a Foothill or De Anza Student to purchase tickets online, but it is necessary to create an account. This registration system is managed by the Community Education Division and is separate from the College's registration system.

NOTICE

All Planetarium visitors are asked to observe the following:

• Masking is highly recommended while visiting the Planetarium. The Planetarium is an enclosed theater space and leaving doors or windows open is not an option. While we have multiple air purifiers in the building, please take that into consideration when visiting us.

PARKING

No parking permit required through Summer quarter 2024. By special policy, students and visitors may park free without purchasing a parking permit through June 2024. We suggest Student Lot E for weekend shows.  Please park only in student spaces marked white and allow time to park and find planetarium facility before the start of the show.
