Roll up your sleeves and let curiosity be your guide. At the Adler Planetarium, you’ll find hands-on, minds-on activities, experiences, and shows about the universe that will blow your mind!
Our award-winning sky shows are not to be missed. Imagine the Moon with us, search for a new ninth planet, take a fast-paced tour of the solar system, get to know the sky above Chicago, and fly through the stars at impossible speeds in our state-of-the-art theaters. Check out trailers for all of our sky shows!
COVID-19 Update
The Adler is currently closed to the public and anticipates reopening in Phase 5 of the guidelines issued by the State of Illinois and City of Chicago,. We are continuing to monitor the situation and if at any point we determine that we can reopen before Phase 5, we will do so. Any updates to hours and programs will be announced here on our website, by email, and via our social media channels. We are looking forward to that day when we can welcome guests back into the museum!
