Pink Floyd’s iconic album ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’, originally released in March 1973, turns 50, and what more fitting place to experience it than in a planetarium, with the music set to visuals.

With the help of modern technology, the show combines breath-taking views of the solar system and beyond, played out to 42 minutes of The Dark Side of the Moon in surround sound.

Each song has a different theme; some futuristic and some a retro acknowledgment to Pink Floyd’s visual history, all relating to a time and space experience. This is a truly immersive and all-encompassing surround sound and visual treat that will transcend reality and take you way beyond the realms of 2D experience.
