The Europlanetarium is one of Belgium's main public observatories — a planetarium with a dome theater for astronomy shows and a rooftop telescope facility for actual stargazing on clear nights. Evening programs combine a dome projection of the night sky with telescope sessions; booking ahead is strongly recommended as they fill up quickly.
The shows are offered in Dutch and sometimes French, with English options available — check the schedule ahead of time if language matters. The planetarium is part of the European Space Agency's outreach network and has a more scientific orientation than typical tourist planetariums.
Located in the Europalaan area near the Sundial Park, making the two attractions natural companions. Children's programs run on afternoons; adult astronomy evenings typically start after dark.
