On April 3, the Kennedy Space Center hosts “Yuri’s Night” with space talks, astronaut meetups, and DJ sets under Florida’s night sky.
The Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex will hold a special edition of Kennedy Under the Stars honoring Yuri’s Night — the global tribute to Yuri Gagarin and the first human spaceflight. From 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., guests will enjoy the complex’s attractions after hours in a festive atmosphere.
The evening features a live DJ and dance floor, the glowing “Cosmic Glow” mini golf at Rocket Garden, and live performances. Two panels will take place at the IMAX theater at 7 p.m. and 8 p.m., available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Attendees can look forward to meeting astronauts (to be announced soon), space-themed character interactions, and informal discussions with aerospace guests about launches, innovation, and the future of exploration. Space-themed costumes are welcome, though full-face masks and weapon-like props are not allowed.
Tickets cost US$ 65 (plus tax) and include parking. Food, drinks, and souvenirs will be available for purchase. The event will be held rain or shine, though it may be rescheduled if Artemis II launches that day.
The complex is also offering a limited-time “Adult at Child Price” promotion through May 24, for visits valid until December 13 — a perfect opportunity to explore at your own pace.
