Planetarium School Group Reservation Request Form

If you are interested in making a reservation for your school group, fill out the information below and press "submit". A member of the Palomar College Planetarium staff will contact you at the phone number or email you provide to coordinate your reservation. NOTE: Although every effort will be made to accommodate your reservation, the school show program is very popular with dates/times filling up fast. It is recommended that you make your reservation allowing as much lead time as possible so that we can best serve you. Reservations can be made up to a year in advance. Please fill in all information if possible.

  • Thank you for your interest in making a reservation for your group.

    Please do not make a reservation if you are not able to follow through with your request. We have many groups that are interested in visiting the planetarium and once a date & time is reserved it is no longer available to others. If you then cancel your reservation, it is a loss of an opportunity for the other groups AND a loss of revenue for the Planetarium which makes it harder to keep our doors open to the public.
    Keep in mind that there is a $60 cancellation fee for groups who cancel within 14 days of their reservation date.
    If you are someone who is not authorized to request a field trip on behalf of your group/school we advise you to get full permission BEFORE you request a date.
