Kennedy Under the Stars returns on August 30, 2025, for an celestial after-hours experience at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex! We are turning back the clock 25 years for some Y2K nostalgia. Join us this summer for:

  • Techno DJ dance party that will light up NASA Central
  • Cosmic Glow Miniature Golf beneath the massive Saturn 1B rocket
  • Multisensory science experiments with our innovative STEAM Team

Plus, join the Ortega Observatory of Florida Tech for a journey through the cosmos. Using state-of-the-art telescopes, witness breathtaking views of celestial wonders and learn fascinating insights from expert astrophysicists. This immersive stargazing experience brings the universe closer, sparking curiosity and wonder for all ages.

And, of course, Kennedy Under the Stars is not complete without meeting real astronauts. Mingle with veteran NASA astronauts during the event. Astronauts will be announced soon.

Many of the visitor complex’s top attractions will remain open late, so you will have extra time to explore without the daytime crowds.
