About this plan
The Bogota Planetarium joins World Space Week with a full week focused on the universe, right from the city. From October 4 to 10, kids and grown-ups can take part in workshops, talks, film screenings, immersive experiences, and family activities that link astronomy with science and culture. It works well for school break plans. You learn while you play, you go home with a head full of questions, and it all happens a short walk from downtown.
The program covers the Moon, Mars, asteroids, satellites, telescopes, life beyond Earth, and rocketry. There are puppet shows, citizen science, literature, and projects that mix art with astronomy. Many activities are free, but some require tickets, so it pays to check the full schedule on the official source.
