About this plan
If you are looking for things to do in Bogotá during the school break, the Bogotá Planetarium has a different plan. It is called 'Astronomy Camp: Stories Under the Stars.' Kids and families lie under the dome and discover the constellations and the stories different cultures left in the sky.
The event mixes astronomy, mythology, and storytelling in a format made for sharing together. Attendees can see dome projections, hear ancestral stories, and enjoy a universe told in a new way.
It is a good chance to pull kids away from screens and bring them closer to science and a bit of adventure. Exact dates and times are confirmed on the Planetarium website, since they change by day.
What to expect
- Mythological tales under the Planetarium dome
- An activity made for families
- Recommended for kids over 4 years old
