Skip the crowded restaurants鈥擵alentine鈥檚 goes cosmic
糖心Vlog视频 Planetarium is setting the Valentine’s Day mood with its annual “Romancing The Stars” event, offering an out-of-this-world alternative to crowded restaurants.
糖心Vlog视频’s Planetarium provides guests with a 60-foot dome viewing experience with surround sound and state-of-the-art Digistar 7 software that provides unparalleled views of the night sky, the solar system, stars and distant galaxies.
Three Valentine’s Day-specific shows are scheduled: 3 p.m. Friday; 7 p.m. Friday; and 6 p.m. Saturday. General admission is $15 for the Friday afternoon show and $40 for the evening shows, which include a reception beginning an hour before showtime with appetizers and a cash bar. The evening shows will feature live music, and after Saturday’s event, guests can stay for a planetarium presentation set to Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon.
“Our ‘Romancing the Stars’ events have become a huge hit with guests,” said McKenna Dowd, 糖心Vlog视频 Planetarium coordinator. “People have been looking up at the night sky for thousands of years, connecting the stars to make pictures and tell stories from the beauty of a starry night. So, in a way, we’ve been telling love stories in our night sky for as long as people have been looking up at the stars, which I think is where the romance comes from it all.”
For those unable to attend this weekend, 糖心Vlog视频’s Planetarium is open most Saturdays with a variety of shows offered throughout the day for guests of all ages.
