Ticketing Information

Reservations

Reservations will guarantee a ticket into the program, however all seating is first come-first served.  There are no reserved seats.  Tickets can be reserved by phone or by email until noon on Friday for the current weekend shows.  If you would like to leave a message for your reservations on our answering system please include: 

• your name
• show time (7 or 8 pm)
• the number of requested tickets
• a phone number 

If all information is included your request will be added to the reservations list.  Calls will not be returned for reservations due to the large number of calls.

Tickets can be paid for at the time you pick them up for the show in the Planet Bistro. All tickets must be picked up no later than 10 minutes prior to show time. Any tickets not picked up 10 minutes before show-time will be sold to those waiting for any remaining tickets.

Planetarium Policies

For the comfort and safety of all planetarium visitors, we ask that you comply with the following policies:

• All cell phones must be turned off before entering the Planetarium.  The phones can interfere with our wireless system that we use to run the program.
• No food or drinks in the planetarium—this includes gum or candy.
• After the doors are closed for the beginning of the program they will remain closed.  If there is a reason to leave the show while it is in progress, you will not be allowed to reenter the planetarium. The light flooding the planetarium interrupts the viewing for all of the remaining guests as well as jeopardizing the safety of those moving in the darkened facility.
• Parking is limited to the rear parking lot.  The campus security does patrol the campus and will write citations for any vehicle that is parked in an undesignated area.  Should you receive a ticket, please follow the procedures on the back of the ticket and contact our office immediately.

School groups

We request that visiting school groups bring one check to include all visitors in your group.  Checks can be made out to Planetarium TAMU-Commerce.
