Pricing:

• Prices start at 450$ (250$ for youth groups/nonprofits). 

• Prices are flexible we can offer programs at a reduced rate (Even FREE) for groups/organizations in genuine need. 

• 450$ is what we usually ask for the normal 2 hr program with a smaller group hosted at our location on a non-peak weekday

• Prices are dependent on travel distance, equipment required, group size, event date, length of tour and type of event.

• Recurring programs are also offered at a discounted rate (for example our contract with Match and the YMCA is lower than 450$ as they have regular programs with us once a month)

​

We can host small to medium sized groups (~30 people max) at our location. However if we're setting up at your location (in Colorado and beyond) we can host many more! our current record is over 1,500 guests 

​

We’ll need:

• a dark mostly flat area to set up.

• access to the space two hours before the program for set up and one hour after for take down

• Parking near the the space to load/unload

• Table/chairs would be nice, we can bring some but if there’s some already set up or in use there that’s easier

• And if the venue is more than ~1.5 hours away from Boulder place to stay or an added expense for a hotel in the area would be really nice to avoid driving fatigued after the program.

We have three main shows we can do one of these, a mix of them, or something different to suit your program:

1. a program more like our usual tour in Boulder where we have a 30min astronomy talk then 1.5 hrs of telescope time.

2. a “side” of astronomy where guests come and go as they please and we show different things in the telescopes to be seen

3. More driven by questions and answer time and then just show the main highlights in the telescope. (this is what I do with the girl scouts/youth groups more because they have less of an attention span)

Also be aware this is a weather dependent activity we are very flexible with our contracts and cancellations due to weather.
