Venue Information
Armagh Observatory and Planetarium
Armagh Observatory and Planetarium is the leading centre for astronomical research and education on the island of Ireland and one of the top attractions in the City of Armagh. The grounds, spanning around 20 acres of green space, are open 24/7 and provide many opportunities to get closer to both nature and space as well as some lovely views of Armagh. The Observatory – featuring a number of historic telescopes – is both a beautiful Georgian building and an active research facility, so it can be admired from the outside, but it is only open to the public on scheduled tours.
Armagh Planetarium is the longest running planetarium in the British Isles! The planetarium was opened in 1968 and celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2018. An icon of the space age when inaugurated, the 12m diameter Dome has witnessed the development of planetarium technology over the past half century. Initially equipped with a starball Goto projector, Armagh then pioneered the introduction of the video revolution into planetaria in the 1970’s. Today, Armagh Planetarium is equipped with a state-of-the art digital projector system providing an immersive experience under the full dome.
