Wander – One admission / Guests may join at 50% of admission.
Explore – Two admissions / Guests may join you at 50% of admission. This membership may be for a parent/child, grandparent/child or couple. 
Discover – All members, including two adults and all children under 18 living in the same household. May include a nanny or caregiver. 

Any child under 3 is FREE.

Membership benefits do not apply when visiting with a group (school, birthdays, youth, adult or other) due to special programming, pricing and funding.

Your current membership for 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 will roll over into the new Discover Membership (Household), including parents or grandparents and all children under 18 within the household. Children under 3 are always FREE.

Your membership allows for $1 off admission, plus we offer FREE movies once a month on a designated Sunday, January – August for members. And now, you can opt into an unlimited movie package with your membership. Ask a Guest Services Representative for details! 

Your Unlimited Planetarium Films Add-On will run in tandem with your purchased membership, meaning no matter when you add the Unlimited Planetarium Films, it will expire when your membership expires, and/or renew when your membership auto-renews.

Every membership purchased requires a credit card on file. You will be notified a minimum of 30 days prior to your expiration date. At that time, you can call and cancel your membership without penalty, or update your payment information, or even adjust your membership level. 

Our facility is a non-cash facility, accepting all major credit cards and debit cards. A check will be accepted for annual memberships and ticket purchases. The WP Café and Parlour only accept debit or credit cards. Please note a 3.5% transaction fee is added to all credit card purchases.
