Support the Charity

Did you know that the National Space Centre is a charity and when you purchase a ticket 100% of the money goes to the curation of our artefact collection, the creation and development of a full education programme and the running of our unique building?

When you buy a ticket you can GIFTAID your ticket at no extra cost, allowing us the opportunity to claim back money from the tax man.

To thank you for buying a ticket and supporting our charitable objectives we offer an automatic FREE Annual Pass upgrade on all paid for tickets.

You don’t need to do anything, you will be given full details on your first visit to the National Space Centre.

How to book a return visit

When you book online you will receive an email confirmation with your membership number, this is what you need to book your return visit (see below on how to find your membership number):

Click the BOOK TICKETS link at the top of the website, then select the Annual Pass Return Booking to make a return visit booking.
Annual Pass return visits must be booked at least 24 hours in advance. If we are already sold out the date will not be available.
An Annual Pass is non-transferable and you will be asked for photo ID upon arrival to use your pass for a return visit.
If there is availability in the planetarium on the day of your visit, you can book an additional show for £3 per person at the main ticket desk upon arrival.
