I accidentally booked for the wrong night, but the staff were incredibly accommodating and friendly and managed to get us into the show very quickly. We watched the gorgeous Pink Floyd show and were completely mesmerized, highly recommended!

Went and visited for the first time in 15 years, just after the recent renovations. The new exhibit spaces are amazing. The night sky show was just as amazing as I remember it. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to do something a bit different.

Definitely good for your family. You can bring your friend if you want to. This place is very educational. Not too crowdy to visit.

Good ol' Stardome at the Cornwall park for Aucklands' children. Only wish if it were a little bit bigger and more things to explore. Shows its age now... but a must experience for children in Auckland.

I was here with a few friends for The Moon Milestone Show. The staff was very friendly and approachable. I must say, the narrator of the show nailed it! It was well narrated and we were loaded with lots of information about the Apollo 11 launch on the Moon. To finish this and as an icing, we also had a look at the stars, planets - Saturn and Jupiter, the Moon and few clusters in the sky through a Telescope! The experience was just too good! The staff here was very welcoming, friendly and was answering all our questions. Some displays based on the Apollo 11 launch themes were made with LEGO! :) I would highly recommend this place, especially this show and would return here for more! Cheers

Matariki review:- overall really enjoyed it, and my 2 and 4 year old enjoyed it for a second year!- be prepared for huge queues if going on the free day (15 min), or, if going to the longer pay for session book in advance.- last year it was by presenter, this year the show was pre recorded.- I don't like how loud it was, and I'd prefer that when locating things in the sky we turn our head and look rather than everything spin for us each time.

I would say must visit place especially school going kids, great knowledge about sky, stars and planets.Observing the starts and other planets another great experience and great level of knowledge kids as well as adults can get from the visit.Four star is because this place can be improved improving the outlook and other marketing techniques to attract people as well to increase the outlook of such great knowledge center.
