It's been three times that we go there. My big (12 years old) loves! We manage to go there when nocturnes (until 23:00) are organized: we can observe the stars with telescopes! This is what my favorite (7 years old). We enjoyed the planetarium and rocket activity.
Presence of a snack.
By cons: it is a bit expensive and there is the tail ... If we want to do everything, plan the day. Insufficient parking on busy days. I regret not being able to dialogue with passionate / researchers / professionals. All told me: no time, there are too many people. Pity...

An endless wait for nothing: "The planetarium will open later" but later when ?! After 40 minutes of waiting to see the staff laugh but do nothing we left! At this price even the cinema seems less scam us!

I know the museum when I was little, it's going to be a long time since I came back, my interested, I was very happy to come back, only small downside, c the map of the site, no indications for movies and activities, so we do not know what it is. The restaurant The astronaut was really excellent, in temp fast food served in 5 see 10 minutes

October 22, 2017 (Toussaint holiday) 25 the entrance from 10h to 18h .. Not too crowded. .possibility of picnic. .Activities fun, Imax 3d .. free entry-free with the ticket. ..How to fill your head .. great day

It is high time that the city of Toulouse gives a big, but then a very big, youthful look at the facilities of the city of space. For such a place, to present such an obsolete in the facilities as in the presentation, is very disappointing. You have more technological content at home or in your pocket ... The video projections in the stellarium are deplorable: the video projection has made such progress for 10 years that we remain stunned by the poor quality and extremely low brightness of the content presented. The stars are blurry, appear in duplicate, it is an incredible heat, the animation is totally outdated short, fun for the little ones because the characters and history are nice, but otherwise really no interest. The presentations in the "space shuttle" under Ariane6 with video-projections of images of another century are also hard to see. Many facilities are out of order or really from another age. The Planetarium, beside the rest, is not bad, but far from extraordinary. We remain on our hunger when the visual quality, and some approximations in the presentation leave something to be desired. Put "1- the sun" in the answer choices to the question: "Which planet is the hottest solar system?" leave him speechless, in a place that does not mean to make that kind of mistake. Then explain to the children who saw that the sun is not a planet!
And the height, one of the few recent and interesting pieces, a copy of the Curiosity rover, a technological gem and exploit of space exploration, which accomplishes a fantastic epic on Mars, is stupidly exposed between the snack and the entrance of the toilets in the access hall to the planetarium and imax 2D (!).
Let's move on to the presence of the Mir station, certainly a beautiful collector's item that has its place here in terms of space history, but that dates seriously and that would benefit from being assisted by a copy of a part of the ISS at least ...
It is incomprehensible that a site that wants a showcase for Toulouse is thus left abandoned, especially given the price of the entry. Do something !

Addition second visit July 2019 (nocturnal): exhibition "Moon" under the welcome and very well done, to see!
A space module (lunar?) Took the place of the plant labyrinth outside, but did not have time to go see it.
"Mapping" on Ariane: disappointment. The idea is good, it starts well and then ... it's over. Too short, we remain on his hunger.
Better impression than at the first visit.

It can please super space enthusiasts, for the rest of the world ... a mediocre playground that is definitely not worth the salty entrance ticket !!! NB: Everything (absolutely everything) available only in French, English, at most Spanish ... there is no comma in Italian !!!

Pity. this park is nice but this visit in a big afternoon ... to see people who spend a lot on the park makes me ashamed to bring people for that. Another problem ... the park has hardly moved for decades.

Beautiful park. Many discovery workshops for adults and children. Good times in perspective for a playful and very well organized park. A park to visit, revisit and to make known. Really very good

Extremely disappointed. First time I come to Toulouse with my boyfriend. Exorbitant entrance fee! 45 50 for two people with a student rate for entry. While there are only things for kids just like the test for
To be on the moon as children. That stuff written on takeoff rockets but nothing on anything that happens in space. Suitable for a true enthusiast but not a mere visitor. At noon we ate we got for 23 90 for a mediocre bag of tiny chips (60g), a bagel SODEBO which must cost 2-3 which was dry and for dessert a muffin or donuts without taste, taste of the locked up. In all we spent 69 10 to be enormously disappointed except by the iMax and planetarium which were niquel and beautiful.

An interesting place where you have to spend the whole day to enjoy it. The exhibits are interesting even if some leave a little on hunger by popularizing can be a little too much. It would be interesting to have some more detailed explanations for those interested. The activities are fun and allow children to learn things while having fun.

Too expensive for what you see. Quite disappointed. The planetarium presents a basic projection worthy of a TV report, the terr @ dome lets in more people than places available for interactivity. I do not recommend. Especially after having done more than 600km to get there.

Perfect for families or adults.
Lots of things to do and all in English, French or Spanish.
There is a free parking.
The films are for kids and young people.

The City of space with family or friends or in a friendly school group it has enough to make the whole day predict not to forget the 3D cinema C Max a great experience to eat in the city restaurant or with sandwiches I you strongly recommend it

Certainly the best place in the world (outside the United States) to discover space. In the park, the Sentinel-3D satellite has just joined Ariane 5, MIR, the Soyuz spacecraft and other objects. The permanent exhibition is very rich ...

What a beautiful day. Arriving at 10:30 am, we did about half of everything on offer. Very interesting and varied. Friendly and caring staff. Restaurant prices once there are very affordable.

I found the expensive entries for the content. In addition the "Toulouse pass" does not even give an entrance to the city of space. Maybe I was disappointed that I visited the NASA museum before, but in view of all the publicity around the city of space in Toulouse I was expecting more real models exhibits and not just a few models and attraction games for kids.

The city of space is one of the most interesting sites in the city of Toulouse. A perfect place to inform yourself and learn more about the aerospace culture. The visit can be done with children perfectly as there are many activities to do with them (Stellarium, Moon Walk, Labyrinth, ...). For the adult people, the best thing is the videos (IMAX and Planetarium), so I recommend making a proper visit configuration to see them all. Especially this city is interesting if there are thematic exhibitions such as Thomas Pesquet. Maybe the price is something excessive. Visitable in one day (10: 00-18: 00) with good planning.

P.D.- The queues of both the IMAX and the Planetarium are usually filled quickly and finish the seats, so it is advisable to be 10-15 minutes before peak hours.

For an evening between adults is disappointing. Even with a price discounted for the nocturnes the account is not there. The film about the aurora borealis, interesting at first, drags on the chuckles of Inuit carrying our minds in very different directions ... a shame not to offer us a deeper visit of the sky.
The film on T. Pesquet makes us discover beautiful things but we remain on his hunger:
- no image on the return to earth
- a camera or screen with at least one big task
- image quality to review.
A final with fireworks definitely appreciated by the little ones.

Name was overrated. For a young audience. Too many events or buildings closed due to COVID, normal, but no price drop, not normal. The film diffused in iMax is of average quality on the experience of T. Pesquet (the DVD is on sale at the LOL store). The other film shown in the planetarium is too superficial. The one broadcast at La Coupole in Helfaut is of exceptional quality in comparison. TO SEE for the reproductions of spacecraft BUT far too few (see website)

Really need some investments to renovate and renew certain attractions. The image quality of the imax is really bad and spoils the very good documentary film about Thomas Almost. Pity...

If you're not here and were in Toulouse, then you have to visit again. The meals were great and the sites welcoming . I loved the stone-like speakers they really gave the feeling of being with planetary bodies . Awesome for kids to learn about the planetarium,the space,historical monuments and of course relate it with the classroom teaching. Great for the whole family .

Poor organisation. While there was almost no one, the shows begin 20 minutes after the advertised schedule. Some animations are sorely lacking refreshment ... Planetarium completely redone, superb show! Overall, very expensive price for what is offered !!

The city of space is a must-see in the pink city. I went to visit as a family. On the other hand, you have to organize yourself to see as much as possible. We were fortunate on the day of our visit, there were not many people (health context requires). The very interesting and enriching visit around several interesting subjects ranging from astronomy to the constitution of the Earth ...
There are permanent exhibits for adults and more interactive and fun exhibits for children (the feeling of weightlessness, etc.). In short, you will find plenty of things in this city.

October requires a lot of activity on a very limited schedule, therefore inaccessible and with non-respected boilers .... despite the daily program delivered to the reception ...
An entry price that does not change ... pure and simple flight

It is a beautiful place of popularization both original and playful. I often went past without stopping and I am happy to have made a stop here. The prices in the park seem correct to me without more

A second visit, and still not disappointed! The explanations are simple, the buildings are available to everyone (except M.I.R.) In addition, the restaurant was fast, and above all very good! Nothing to say!

Nice and educational day, on the other hand,
the surroundings are to be cleaned (papers and plastics on the ground) and, oh discover at the shop labels on the books more expensive than the printed price!
Super rainbow attraction to cool off under the Toulouse sun!

Cool

Park super nice and we learn a lot about the universe and others.
Part against I was disappointed we could not climb all the top of the rocket because it is impossible to go, and they should put umbrellas at the disposal of the customers part time of rain that would not be refusal.
Otherwise nothing to say

I love this park BUT !!!! Because of the COVID19 full of attraction, the IMAX cinema is closed, closed for renovation, so if it's paying full prices for half a park, it's not fair.
Very disappointed.
