190th Birthday Celebrations | Planetarium in the Chapel

As part of our 190th birthday celebrations, join us for a magical journey through the night sky as the University of Sheffield’s inflatable planetarium returns to the Samuel Worth Chapel.

Step inside this immersive, dome-shaped inflatable and explore stars, constellations, and cosmic wonders – all without leaving the ground. It’s a unique opportunity to experience the universe in one of Sheffield’s most atmospheric heritage venues.
