Booking & Events
Kantipur Planetarium is an educational initiative that brings the universe to you! We operate an inflatable, portable full-dome theater that travels to schools, colleges and public events across Nepal. We are operating 4 units now. Our mission is to spark curiosity and provide immersive, state-of-the-art astronomy experiences, filling the gap in traditional education by providing virtual simulations of space and real-time observation sessions. We are currently working toward establishing Nepal's first permanent mini space center.
We primarily operate within the Kathmandu Valley, but we frequently travel across various regions of Nepal for bookings and events. Contact us directly with your location details to confirm if we can bring the dome to you!
We generally require a clear indoor space (like auditorium, a school hall or large common room) with minimum dimensions of approximately 6 meters to 12 meters in diameter and 3.5 meters to 6.5 meters ceiling height [ depending upon the size of DOME we use]. Please provide venue dimensions when requesting a quote.
